thanks for letting me know. I love the Molly Drake songs on the moving "Family Tree" compilation. They work really well in that context - nestled up against Nick's home-recorded covers of blues tracks and gospel tracks sung with his sister. I for one didn't know that there was a Molly Drake album. I'll definitely give it a listen. Jim - have you ever heard of Connie Converse? I only came across her wonderful music recently - a bit of a latecomer - but it's in the same ballpark. Literate, a bit "posh old lady"ish but really one-of-a-kind. http://connieconverse.bandcamp.com/
