That's a great story podunklander, there should be a Judy Collins autogragh picture in that General Store. I guess they never thought of taking a pic of her singing and playing guitar for them ! :)

Do you remember the tune you played ?

Re: Judy Collins is 69 !
 

of course I do, I wrote it ;) but sometimes I forget the bridge I threw in lol

Re: Judy Collins is 69 !
 

Nice story...lucky store patrons!
I guess I would tell everyone over and over again if Judy Collins played at my place....lol.

She really has a beautiful voice. Hope she has a great birthday with many more to come!

Collins and Cohen sound really good together. I have always loved that LC song.

Happy Birthday and thanks for such beautiful music!

A happy belated from me Borderstone. :)

One of,if not "the" very first female singers of the 1960s that I got into as a boy in the 1970s/early 80s. Mainly thanks to "Both Sides Now". ;)

Hi Pam, I like an autobiography once in a while. Maybe I'll give that one a try. I was thinking it must be nice to be a baby if you get to have her to sing you lullabyes. Last night, I sang Clouds or Both Sides Now to my dog, Rosy and she was so enamored for quite a while. She had her 'arms' crossed like a sweetie and looked at me lovingly where ever I would go. :)

I have not read it, but your post tweaked my curiosity. So I searched for info on it, and the issues she has dealt with sound pretty depressing. Do the first 2 chapters deal with those ?

Here's a link to an article/interview about/with Judy Collins that covers a lot of ground:

This little guy started playing guitar when he was 9. Now he is 11, and will be 12 next month. jwcfree posts his videos on youtube. This video was posted 10 months ago.

I love this kid!
Awesome little guy.

This is such a pretty song and I love the way he plays it...so mellow. :)

Thank you, Patti girl. :)

Thanks Patti, this is the best one yet. He's so good at his young age it's unbelievable. :)
