Felipa	Origins: Once I Had a Sweetheart (from Baez) (11)	RE: Origins: Once I Had a Sweetheart (via Baez)	18 Apr 23
Did Derroll Adams have any connection with this song = did he record it, perform it, take inspiration from the tune or structure for his own songwriting, etc? My web searches for Derroll Adams and Once I Had a Sweetheart are only leading me back to Mudcat, where the DT (apparently erroneously) attributes the song to him. The discographies I've looked at don't list the songs on the various albums of Derroll Adams. BTW, on youtube there is a video of Carolyn Hester singing this same version/setting of Once I Had a True Love in 1963, the year Joan Baez recorded it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nsl6Su5eSz8 Cynthia Gooding recording https://archive.org/details/lp_queen-of-hearts-early-english-folksongs_cynthia-gooding/disc1/02.02.+Once+I+Had+A+Sweetheart.mp3 This album was issued in 1953
