I've read this story too and kind of held it against Judy in the same way I held Rickie Lee's remarks about Joni against her for a long time. Very silly of me in retrospect but at one time anybody who spoke or did anything against Joni was unworthy of my notice. Hopefully I have learned a thing or two and grown a tad bit since those days;-) As far as I know Joni & Judy are on good terms these days. Somebody on the list actually had an email from Judy expressing her admiration and respect for Joni. Mark E in Seattle np: Albatross - Judy Collins (I love this song)
