Seventy-five Septembers is Cheryl Wheeler's very nice tribute song to her grandmother (I know about Wheeler's sexual orientation).
Dar Williams is the Dar Williams who will later become famous, and still be barefoot and then go all Mary Chapin Carpeter "Somebody Feed Me" large on us - which offended people for some reason, but anyway the song's about how Christians and pagans aren't all that different. Riiiiiight. The solstice, so Amber called her uncle. Gee. When Christians sit with pagans only pumpkin pies are burning.
Catie Curtis and Susan Werner - my kids grew up loving Werner's "Last of the Good, Straight Girls" from the CD of the same name ("gone the days of the corduroy jumpers and your birthday string of pearls"), but Werner's agnostic gospel CD is . . . interesting.
Tish Honojosa is, on the CD and still is, an absolute angel - and in some twisted way, through a sampler CD playing in a Cambridge funky shop while my youngest was looking at jewelry, she led me to Chip Taylor & Carrie Rodriguez, for which I'll always be grateful. And, Chip Taylor is John Voight's brother. Who knew?
