A Lot Of Singers That I've Heard

I First Knew Laurie Lewis By Her Considerable Reputation As A Fiddle Player And A Writer Of Songs. When An Opportunity Came Along To Sing With Her I Seized It.

I Never Wrote Anything Down. I Never Kept A Diary, Never Kept A Journal. I Did Write One Letter Home About Touring With The Doors That I Used As A Reference For The Book For Some Details There, And Then I Was Glad I Had That, But That Was It.

Judy Henske, Who Was The Then Reigning Queen Of Folk Music, Said To Me At The Troubadour, 'honey, In This Town There Are Four Sexes. Men, Women, Homosexuals, And Girl Singers.'
