I can't resist but to show you a perfect example of the heavy wages of rock. Carolyn Hester was a folk artist and arch rival of Joan Baez (I actually prefer her voice to Joan's). Here she is with Dylan in 1961.

Here she is in 1969.
What a difference a few years can make! 
Wow! Don't forget to vote for your favorite Caroline song-
the poll is located in the sidebar.
Oh Carolyn! Someone ought to write a song about what happened to HER.
ReplyDeleteI only really know the Neil Diamond song so cannot vote, though I love the idea of this poll. Am not crazy about the Neil Diamond song though.
Beach Boys--a longtime favorite of their songs.
ReplyDeleteGreat post. The only one of these songs I've really ever heard is "Sweet Caroline" by Neil Diamond. I have always loved that song.
ReplyDeleteI removed the poll information, since it'll be out of date shortly.
ReplyDeleteThanks to those that participated in the poll. I personally like the Colin Blunstone song the best, but I can understand how the Neil Diamond song would be more popular.
As far as Carolyn Hester is concerned, there's not much to be said except - Damn! She was a pretty lady, what happened?
I thought the Velvet Underground did Stephanie Says. I like the first picture of her better.
