Re: Judy Collins, Gary Z. said: << [snip]My understanding regarding her voice was that she either had some throat problems and/or surgery, or something was wrong with her vocal chords around the time of the albums produced in the early 80s. I thought she hit some pretty bad notes on a few of those albums, and I kind of lost her.[snip]>>
Gary, I think I remember reading something about that -- it's been so long, i don't remember the souce -- and didn't she also have an appearance on Saturday Night Live during this period of time of difficulties that was god-awful? I was visiting friends in Florida at the time, late '70's or early '80's, and I'd stayed around watching the TV, just waiting to see Judy C., and she was *so* off-key, I groaned, turned the TV off and went out... Anybody else remember when she was on SNL? Was she as off that night as i remember, or was *I* off that night? (I'm frequently off...) warmly, Walt
