Flaming Red by Patty Griffin
Flaming Red is an album by Patty Griffin, released in 1998. 4 songs from it have charted on rock radio countdowns, with 13 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “One Big Love”, on 5 lists with a best position of #431.
Flaming Red, Patty Griffin's second album, came out on A&M on June 23, 1998, following her debut Living with Ghosts, with Jay Joyce producing. Griffin sings and plays guitar and piano, and she made her name as a stripped-down folk songwriter whose songs other artists like to borrow.
Songs like "Mary", "Tony", "Carry Me" and "One Big Love" have kept turning up on the countdowns years later. It was never a blockbuster, reaching number 12 on the Top Heatseekers chart, but it kept selling quietly: 122,000 copies in the US by May 2004. 1000 Kisses was next.
