Comment by Loren Miller on May 11, 2018 at 6:02am: @Bertold - Well, Joni Mitchell's in there, too, and she started out as a folkie. Of course, she branched out from there ... AND she's a WAY better songwriter than Baez!

I have to say also that I am no great fan of Baez at all. I just find her tiresome.

Comment by Bertold Brautigan on May 10, 2018 at 9:44pm: @Loren - Speaking of the R&R HoF, WTF were they thinking when they went with Joan Baez and not Steppenwolf? I liked Joan ok back in the day, but it ain't the f-ing folk music HoF.

Comment by Chris on April 25, 2018 at 12:12pm: Thanks for the link to Jonathan Fritzen Patricia.

Comment by Loren Miller on April 25, 2018 at 6:11am: Anyone here remember Ellen McIlwaine? Heard a fair amount of her music on WMMS back in the day, then listened to her live at the Smiling Dog Saloon and very much enjoyed her music. The one piece she performed which really left a mark on me was her cover of Blind Faith's "Can't Find My Way Home," which was another of those songs I stumbled onto in my YouTube tour of a couple days ago. I thought I'd offer it to you all here:

Comment by Loren Miller on April 24, 2018 at 8:01am: "Haunting" is the word for sure, Bertold. While Procol Harum might not ever actually get into the R&RHoF, I'm sure there's more than a little notice of them in the museum. I'll make a point of checking, next time I go there.

Comment by Bertold Brautigan on April 24, 2018 at 8:00am: Another moody tune--

Comment by Bertold Brautigan on April 24, 2018 at 7:59am: Wonderfully haunting song.

Back in the day I spent hours listening to that album under all sorts of extreme conditions. Procol Harum were really influential.

Comment by Loren Miller on April 24, 2018 at 6:38am: I was touring through my collection of YouTube music when I came onto the following, and I was reminded of the intense power and evocative quality it held. Seriously, does anyone make music like this anymore? I wonder.

In any case, submitted for your approval: "A Salty Dog:"
