Here's something interesting, and slightly relevant to current conversation: Last night before bed I was looking at some of Frida Kahlo's dresses, corsets and such and then moved on to her paintings. During the night I had a dream that Olivia Neutron John was playing at an art show I was curating...

Thanks Cecile! i just looked. i guess Judy Collins primarily did covers.(or,only?)
'never heard the 'priest cover. both of those "genres" were far away from where i was at back then.

@Brendan: It's a great idea, but I don't have too many porn soundtracks! I'm sure I can harvest a set from the WFMU library, though. BTW, these are all songs that Erroll Brown wrote. Those are the ones I'm picking.
