Subject: RE: Historical gay/lesbian/bisexual songs?
Wow! gREAT! Yes, Rick, B. Britton was gay; the Queen even sent condolences when he or his partner passed on (can't remember which and don't want to call my brother to ask.)

I have a great book, "Homosexuals in History", which gives a short bio of many.

Does anyone recall the name of a comedy/singing duo, both gay, started out in the 80's? I think one of them was named Phillips? We saw them at UMASS-Amherst and they were fantastic. I never got their tape and would love to find them again.

Not sure about Donovan, his latest cd, "Sutras" is "dedicated to she" according to the liner notes and has a b&w photo, closeup of him ad a woman embraced.

How about recent, besides Holly, Ferron and k.d.? Anybody perform for gay/lesbian/bisexual/trangender audiences specifically?

Thanks, kat
