Hey Dick, How did the posting for the Hitler's Genitals thread get into this one? Is someone trying to tell us something?

I can think of a couple of female singer/songwriters who fall within the ambit of folk music, and who have written really good gay women's songs.

One is Meg Christian from the U.S. The album (vinyl) which I have is from the late 70's and there are some beautiful pieces of music on it, lyrics, melodies, arrangements, everything.

The other one is Judy Small, an Australian, who writes brilliantly funny lyrics, as well as good social action songs and social commentary.

From memory I think that there are only 2 or 3 of hers in the DT database - maybe 'Mothers, Daughters, Wives', 'Walls & Windows', and the 'IPD' - not to be read/listened to by squeamish males unless wearing full codpiece protection. ;-> Please bear in mind that she sings it with a big grin rather than a sneer.

I'd like to see more Judy Small lyrics in the database if anyone knows where to find them. 'Bridget Evans', a song about women in Britain protesting at a nuclear site is excellent too.
