KS was part of the California 60s folkie scene. She's supposed to have coined the phrase "love generation." She appeared at the IOW Festival in 1970.
She recorded a couple of albums for Ritchie Havens' short-lived Stormy Forest label. The first was
re-issued in 2007, but this one has never been released on CD, so is perforce a vinyl rip.
An interesting listen, from the Joni Mitchell/Judy Collins school.

ReplyDeleteI remember I had a copy of this a several years ago, some DJ/producer bought it off me, I think because it had a drum break on it he wanted.
ReplyDelete(I wondered too about Tony Levin.)
