I remember that I first thought it was you, Madam Masque, who was singing. Mostly because I heard your voice in a few inteviews.
I got so dissapointed when I found out it wasn't the case. Still, Love the drawings, and I can't help but see your Jenny as a great Rayek-Winnowill hybrid.
Great job. I was moved by the song and the implications of it in the German version of the movie "The Three Penny Opera", but, not speaking German I was relying on subtitles. I came to Judy's version second hand and love it, although the lyrics and anger were watered down. Your Illustrations bring back much of the pathos, indignation and frustration from the movie version of the song.
Congratulations ! I love this song sung by the great Judy Collins. I also have the original version sung by Lotte Lenya the wife of the creator who acted in the first film made twice (in German and in french). In German they have a special expression (the same in french) when Jenny says " Hop la ! " translated into english by " right now ! ". In fact it is an "onomatopée" giving the terrible sound of the cutting of heads ... Wonderful ! Great thanks !
I don't think I've ever not liked something of yours Wendy.The way you tell stories with your artwork is such an inspiration! Thank you for sharing this with us!
@vatua - Yes, dear, I worked from jpegs of the old, original art which Richard scanned. The art is very carefully preserved in our files at Warp Graphics.
Oh WOW!!! Wendy, you have really just made my night!!! Love the song paired with the artwork! Perfect, absolutely and in all ways, just perfect! :-) To you, Madam, I tip my hat and raise my sword. SALUT!
Awesome Illustrations! I've been fascinated by this song since I was a child; Your beautiful and detailed art adds new dimensions to the lyrics that I never had imagined before!
@LilNiceWolf - Thanks so much. I produced this in a college class as a music video (VIDEO TAPE! The spanking new wonder of the age!) back in 1970. That tape is long disintegrated, but here it is recreated with a few fun IMovie tweaks. Just a little revenge fantasy from a somewhat twisted 19 year old. LOL
wonderful combination...well done!

I had all of Judy Collins albums in 1969 in Viet Nam, I loved this song. To close off the evenings we would listen to "Who Knows Where The Time Goes"
