TIMI YURO / WILLIE NELSON
Timi Yuro's final stab at the big time came via old friend Willie Nelson.
The singer had met Nelson during the early 1960s when he was still a struggling country songwriter, the free dinners that Timi's mother, Edith Yuro, served up for her daughter's pal and kept the songwriter from starving in his lean years.
In 1963 Timi had helped Willie out by including his songs "Are You Sure" and "Permanently Lonely" on her album "Make the World Go Away".
Nelson never forgot the kindness he was shown.
In December 1981, upon learning that Yuro had cancer and couldn't get financing for an album "Timi Yuro Today", Willie offered to record her at his studio. "He paid for everything," Yuro said. "He let me stay there and I did that whole album there." Her album of Willie Nelson songs – released 1982 – was said to be the most emotionally charged of her career and the relief and joy that she felt in actually being able to sing again.
The vinyl album " Timi Yuro Today" was reissued as a cd in 1991 on her own T.R.M.I label, re-mastered and remixed by Yuro herself and titled "Timi Yuro Sings Willie Nelson", with 2 compositions with Willie called "There’s a Way" and "Did I Ever Love You".
