Does anyone know who the singer is on this recording? It's a demo, probably from some point in the 1970s and has been preserved on an acetete from RCA Records. We rather like it - its a very summery slice of singer-songwriting, with what you could probably get away with calling an acid folk vibe to it. It's come to Lost Folk Tapes from Rob Cochrane of the Culture Catch blogsite - and he doesn't have any idea who it is, either. His guess is that it might be Catherine Howe, who recorded a couple of albums for RCA in the early seventies... though the material she released tended to be a lot poppier than this. Anyway, all we know is that the song is called Don't Hide Your Love and very lovely it is, too.
