Linda sometimes pops into the Mudcat, too. I first met her at John Dwyer's house in Marysville, around 1986 or 87, probably. She was just starting to collect the songs that became Washington Songs and Lore, and John thought she would be interested in a couple of mine. Well, one for two ain't bad! (See, I can tell "old" Seattle folk stories, too!) I agree with Don, both of Linda's songbooks are excellent. And she is also an outstanding singer and songwriter, herself. Check out the Linda Allen homepage.

Aloha,
Mark (the turtles say hi, too)
