@LaLaLand9797 I'm thinking late '70s, early 80s, probably. Hell I remember when that "Live"album came out. I remember when Olivia Records (Meg Christian, et al) arrived in Los Angeles. I remember Margie Adam's first concert, when she sang "My Best Friend" (the Unicorn Song, later recorded by Peter, Paul & Mary). I remember when Chris Williamson first fell in love with a woman. I remember the Lesbian Talent Show on Venice Beach, that helped launch the feminist music scene. . .
@rriverstone1 It was 74' when Holly Near dedicated the "Live Album" to Ronnie Gilbert whom she thought she was dead. Ronnie's daughter gave her a copy of the album and Ronnie was kind of pissed at first , because she thought that she should of been asked first. She finally gave in and listened to the album and . and the rest like they say is history that evolved into this great concert.
Anyone know if it's possible to get the piano score? It is so perfect for the song. I haven't been able to find it.
