[GuitarzanOO50]

RIP Dory. :-(

Criminally underrated. I'll take her over Joni Mitchell any day. So raw, direct, and honest--you just don't get anything this good anymore. If you are put off by her look, just listen to her on vinyl or her reissued CDs. It just may change your life. It did mine.

[yvonneszymczak]

This song is amazing.

Dory Previn is a goddess!!!!!!

I was at that Concert in the Albert Hall - too - never forgotten it - wow - I'm so pleased that you posted this - have just got her last albums on CD after all these years - and bless her, Dory is still going!

[Guppychild17]

Thank you so much for posting this. I've wanted to see her performing live so long. All I have are the old vinyl records so I'd only seen pictures before. I wonder how old she is now. She's probably the one celebrity in the world I'd want to meet.

Dory Previn, (born 22 October 1925 or 1929), is an American lyricist, singer-songwriter and poet.

In the 1970s, after their divorce, she released six albums. Dory Previn's lyrics from this period are characterised by their originality, their irony, and their honesty in dealing with her troubled personal life, as well as more generally about relationships, sexuality, religion and psychology.

She's great!

[jvangeene]

Oh man she is good! I never saw anything live of her, but she really has such a great voice and interpretation. Best!

[jackhillty]

crazy. so good to see her. the surrealist barbra streisand. somewhere there's a video of her doing "scared to be alone" on ed sullivan which varped me for life

[jameszerukjr]

Does anyone know why Ms. Priven chose to use Mary C. Brown in the song instead of Peg's?

[seamonkey41]

because she is singing about every starlet that committed suicide not just one.

[leanyears]

Wow!!

So rare to get a Dory post- thank you!!
