"First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" sung by Pete's sister, Peggy Seeger. Written in 1947 by Peggy's husband, the Scots folksinger Ewan MacColl, for Peggy when they were courting. Ewan never liked any of the many covers of this song. When I heard him sing it I was shocked by the rapid tempo. I was used to the languorous rhythm of Roberta Flack on this one. Ewan just shot right through it like he wanted to tell his girl something important but was kinda embarrassed.



It's hard to find a version of the song that isn't just sloppy-sentimental. Try this one on.... Ah, the 60s....earnest liberal white folks trying so damn hard to be real humans. We didn't get it, and by the time we did, we were old.

Or this one...hey! A triple shot, maybe a first for this thread! Johnny Cash does a good job on it IMO.

"Killing Me Softly" - Roberta Flack


I liked the Fugees' cover, too; but it ticked me off a little that when it came out a lot of folks thought it was their song (always a bit of a hazard with covers) - Killing Me Soflty--Fugees - YouTube.

I did read the Carole King autobiography. She's just wonderful. And the first time I ever saw her was on Sesame Street, so that makes her even better still:). You are really bringing the goods to this thread, Moonlit:toast:!

"Any Colour You Like"

Here's something a little different I discovered by accident while posting this song on Becky's thread. Open two windows both with this video, start one of them then any time after that 15, 20, 45 seconds or a minute or so, it doesn't really matter start the other video. It sounds pretty cool.
