Thread Name: Happy! – Feb 19 (Sis Cunningham)
Subject: RE: Happy! – Feb 19 (Sis Cunningham)
Greetings:
To me Sis was not only an inspiration; she was also a friend and an active encourager. She and Gordon published several of my songs in Broadside when I was just a young whippersnapper, and they even invited me to perform at some of the informal hoots they had at their apartment on the Upper West Side of Manhattan.
After a long absence from the organized folk scene, I was very proud to be asked to perform in a Sis Cunningham tribute concert held in New York City in November 1997. I was also proud to be asked to appear in A Song for Sis, the Sis Cunningham memorial concert that took place in October 1994.
