Judy Collins. An interpreter. Or so I thought until she butchered "Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues," which I could forgive because I can take or leave Dylan, too. Then she butchered "Chelsa Morning," which told me that nobody should mean with Joni Michell's songs. She's a little more insipid then say. Jone Bess, but Who Knows Where the Time Goes is a near masterpiece all the way around, and "Pretty Polly" stones for "Tom Thumb" at least.
Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. They made music I loved because I could sing falsetto until I was 16. Every year WMEX brings them to town and runs a contest to give away half the house because who wants to hear 35 year old Frankie Valli sing "Cheery Baby"? People who can still sing falsetto.
Terry Straus, My ex-roomate, and my friend; Shouts of kickback, payolat so what. Terry's third trip to the Dunster library for forty minutes of voice and guitar. Twice I sang with him, and both times I was terrible, so I don't sing with him anymore. Terry's not an interpreter, he just sings other people's songs. But he's got a good voice, and he plays well, so he manager to bring it off quite well. His patter's not to be believed, and they tell me he's working on an original.
