I met Odetta at the Folk Fest. in Calgary 9 yrs. ago... folks were saying that she had some health problems..mild stroke or something to that effect... I remember she walked into that crowded staff and performers room like royalty... walked straight up to me, offered her hand and introduced herself... I had never met her before or since... but will always remember that moment.. talk about regal bearing...
