Keeping with the bay area sounds... not a girl group, but you cannot think of that period of music with out hearing Grace Slick in your head. Okay... I can't.
One pill makes you larger
And one pill makes you small,
And the ones that mother gives you
Don't do anything at all.
Go ask Alice
When she's ten feet tall.
The next lady is Rita Coolidge with a Bob Dylan song.

I can't leave out lovely Linda! This is my favorite Jackson Browne song... but she does it justice.

This woman had a profound effect on me. I don't even think I can explain it. You have heard her if you know it or not. Merry Clayton. I like the blurb that came with this... so I left it in.
Street Fighting Woman!
Merry was the woman dueting with Mick on the Rolling Stones' original 1969 recording of "Gimme Shelter". Who better to interpret it the following year than Merry herself? She's accompanied on keys by her friend, the immeasurably important Billy Preston, who was as much the Sixth Stone as the Fifth Beatle in these years. The galloping roar of guitar may be David T. Walker, although the album credits don't clarify.
She was born on Christmas Day, and what a gift!
Okay, most folk can remember Judy Collins... she's the woman that Suite for Judy Blue Eyes was written for by Stephen Stills.
She has a very breathy voice. I read somewhere that it was because she had TB. Not sure if that is true or not though. I like this song best... no I D photo with it but it has muppets!

I hope that link works okay. It's a cute video.
I wanted to put in a video of Billie Holiday, but could not get it to transfer. Rats. "It was Aint Nobody's Business if I do".
Okay. That's about it... had to do a quick one. I went to drive StbX home and managed to slip on the wet steps and cream my ankle. I am not a happy camper. Gonna have to get a sub and ask the Bear to drive me to see my doc. What a pisser when walking was working so well for me! Such is life. So let me leave you with a funny song and a great lady.

Have a fantastic Tuesday. Hope yours is less painful than mine... though I am more mad at myself than in pain at this point. Frozen veggies on the ankle help. It's probably just a sprain. We will see. It made a nasty sound. More fun and games. Sheesh. Hope it does not set me back too far.
