Re: Judy Collins is 69 !
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 !

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.

Re: Judy Collins is 69 !
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".

Re: Judy Collins is 69 !
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 ?

Re: Judy Collins is 69 !
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.
