A group of music figures has begun a campaign against mountaintop coal removal. The campaign, Music Saves Mountains, is sponsored by the Natural Resources Defense Council and the Gibson Foundation. Robert F. Kennedy JR. a senior attorney with the council, addressed those attending a meeting this week. Those at the gathering included Emmylou Harris, Randy Travis, Big Kenny Alphin, Dierks Bentley, Delbert McClinton, Kid Rock and J.D. Souther. Harris said protection is needed for the Appalachian mountains, where country music was born and is celebrated in song.
