I have been searching for this version of the song for more than 30 years - heard it sung by Pete Sutherland when he was in Würzburg playing a live concert. The cassette I bought that day went everywhere I went and finally ended up broke. - Thank you so much for bringing this song to life again!
Hi again Carla, I hope you have had a nice day. I was listening to your 1972 album. Propinquity on TH-cam. I enjoyed hearing this early album you were part of. Was it ever released on CD and is it available for purchase? Are you in touch with any of the other members of this group? Are any of them also still involved with music? You were all so young. It is is a really good band and very talented at that young age.
Carla, I absolutely enjoyed hearing you sing this heartfelt song. Wish you would have gigs lined up in California one day. What album is this on and how can I send for it? The actual album that is.
Thanks so much, Suzanne! It is going to be on the album I am about to record! It will be a few months down the road, so you can either go to my website and sign the email list or keep watching here on TH-cam for the announcement. I really appreciate you reaching out!
@@carlasciaky3030 Hi Carla, I look forward to getting this album when it is out. I will check back on your website. Are you by any chance familiar with a folk singer named Dayle Stanley? She was from Massachusetts and had two LP's out in the 1960's. She played at folk clubs in the eastern U.S., mostly, during the 60's. I am fortunate to have both LP's (never released on CD's) All her songs are available to hear on TH-cam. If you have time, have a listen to both albums. There is one song in particular that is very good, probably my favorite called, "Letter from the Willow Tree." Also, lovely cover of "Shenandoah" Sadly Dayle passed away in a January 2021 in her late 70's I believe but not sure exact age. I was wondering if "Letter from the Willow Tree" would be of interest to you to cover? I think your voice would be great to cover it. There is only one singer out of UK that covered it on a CD released in UK. I believe the song was written by Dayle's ex -husband, Steve Scotti, from Mass. He died several years ago now. I met him once many years ago when I was visiting Mass. in the 1980's. He was a writer and I think also involved with the theater back east where he lived. I never met Dayle though. It is kind of an interesting story how I came to find out about Dayle. Many years ago, in the late 1960's, (still in my teens), and when Woolworth's was still around, I was at this store in dtwn. L.A. They sold LP's and 45's there. So I see one of Dayle's albums.. I was already into folk music, Joan Baez, Judy Collins and Dayle's album looked very interesting with songs that were folk. The album was sealed as they did not sell used records. So although I had never heard of her, I paid maybe $3.00 for it. Got home where I lived with my parent's and played it and liked it immediately. Then years later I found the other Dayle Stanley album (not at Woolworths though) and bought the second album. Only two were ever released.

I like your melody for this poem. Truly inspired by the meter and rhyme. Lovely voice and guitar work, too.

@@suzannelawson9215 Great story! Thanks -- I had not heard of Dayle, but now I will look her up!
