Not sure why anyone wouldn’t want to listen to outstanding music but to each their own I guess.

I forgot I saw Julie Felix, before she became well known, Omah. It was at a school in the kingston-On-Thames area.

For a while in the late '60's, the lovely Julie was everywhere, with her own show on BBC TV, then, I guess, her kind of "folk" fell out of favour.

However, she's still alive, aged 81 .....
