Wow guys - such accolades! Your enthusiasm for our sound and our act continues to blow me away. The perspective that comes with the passage of time has proven that we did indeed have something very special to offer back then and the sound still holds today. Its just that trying to hold five alpha-females together, (all of whom sang, looked good enough & played guitar), was a daunting task as your can imagine. Be that as it may, I, for one, have been thoroughly enjoying all of the cyberspace activity around our group since Thomas Otto first stirred thing up (and got us talking to each other again) in 2007 with his original Tribute to The Womenfolk:

At this point, every recording we ever made is now available on Amazon.com/MP3 Downloads, and The iTunes Store – including the long lost singles: My Heart Tells Me To Believe & The Way I Feel. And Lalah's (solo) Lightspeed Album 2007 – is also available there. Now comes the discussion about the television shows: Red Skelton, Ed Sullivan, Steve Allen, Hullabaloo, Mike Douglas and one of my favorites, The BBC's – Tonight in Person. So we are continuing to piece together this patchwork quilt of our time together. But, its not easy because we're on our own, and of course we're all trying to survive in our present day lives. At least three of us really want to start performing again even though time and distance and issues around the almighty dollar have been getting in our way.

But, be that as it may, all of you are so sweet. Thank you for your on-going support. We are eternally grateful for The Mudcat Café (and Tom's myporch blog) for the continuing discussion about The Womenfolk. And even though lately we haven't been able to rotate our tracks (technical problems) on our myspace site, in order to offer samples of the different ablums, we are still there. The blog entries go back to 2007 and you'll find some new pictures there as well. If you haven't already done so, please join us at:

So, Tom, dan g, John & Mike – and all of you contributing Mudcatters. We hear you and Thanks Again!
