GUEST,Steve Lohmeyer Lyr Req/Add: I'm Gonna Be a Bachelor (Wheeler) (6) RE: Lyr Req: I'm Gonna Be A Bachelor (Billy Ed Wheeler 03 Jul 13

Dear Group:

A while back somebody asked who the girl is singing backup on Billy Edd Wheeler's own recording of his song "The Bachelor."

Isn't it a young Judy Collins?

Didn't she tour with him for a time when she was young?

I remember SOMEBODY mentioning touring with Billy Edd Wheeler as she introduced "Coal Tattoo" in concert, and I think it was Judy Collins.
I can't think of another female folk singer who performed "Coal Tattoo" in concert. Can you?

If it isn't her, it's somebody trying AWFULLY hard to sound like a young Judy Collins. Mine is a very fine 33rpm LP called "Midnight Hoot," and I'm pretty sure that's a young Judy Collins.
