Thread Name: Who got them started? (as folk singers/musicians)
Subject: RE: BS: Who got them started?
Reading the earlier thread(thanks Allen), I remembered another event similar to one there. I was in sixth grade I think, when the teacher says were going to take a break, and this girl named Ellen hauls out this strat with a small amp. Everyone was delighted of course,as she stood in front and sang something called "Sinner Man".

She was really very talented for a young girl and became even better in high school. But up until then, music was something someone else did. Tragically, she was killed in college in a car wreck. I really think she might have made it.

Rick, thanks for the info. It's funny, I have a J45 myself, and someone told me I sound like Dylan with a voice. I've always liked his voice however and have defended him in many bloody battles.

Peace

Clifton
