“Misguided Angel” by Cowboy Junkies

"Misguided Angel" is one of the originals on The Trinity Session, the Cowboy Junkies' second album, written by Margo and Michael Timmins, with Margo singing it and Jeff Bird credited on fiddle, harmonica and mandolin. Like the rest of the record, it was cut inside Toronto's Church of the Holy Trinity on November 27, 1987, with the band gathered in a circle around a single microphone, and you can practically hear the room.

The album first came out in Canada on Latent Recordings early in 1988 before RCA gave it a worldwide release later that year. In 2007 the band went back to the same church to record a new version of the album with guests Natalie Merchant, Vic Chesnutt and Ryan Adams, released as Trinity Revisited to mark the album's 20th anniversary.
