Karla Bonoff

rpeluso,  She does have beautiful voice and I would go to see her if she came to a small venue here.  I primarily like her albums after her career slowed down a little, "Calling Me Home", "Coal" and "Pretty Bird".  I'm sure she's got good stuff on any of her albums though.

tomcy6, we clearly share tastes; I love Coal, and Pretty Bird.  I, again, was so surprised with just how fantastic she was live.  Long ago I lived in Nashville, a friend of mine was a struggling song writer then (became very very successful), and there was a benefit for a local songwriter/artist, my friend allowed me to go along with him, and there was a silent auction.  I managed to get a Statler Brothers signed LP, and Kathy was there, working the "register", and I have the receipt with her name on it.  This was sometime between 1980 and 1983.  

I saw Karla Bonoff in the late 70's in Ithaca, NY.  She has always been one of my favorites.

Anyone remember The Roches?

Anyone remember The Roches?

Absolutely! I have quite a few LPs by The Roches. Suzzy was with Loudon Wainwright III for awhile, and had one daughter Lucy, who is the half-sister of both Martha and Rufus Wainwright. Their mother is Kate McGarrigle, another singer/songwriter.

Pretty talented family...

I'd say!  I saw The Roches at about the same time as Karla Bonoff and really enjoyed their show.  Quirky, funny, and very talented!
