Hey all, A month or so ago, I was skimming through...I think...Performing Songwriter, and read the interview with Patty Griffin. While I liked it, I didn't get the magazine. Now I've got one of the things she said stuck in my head...something about how songwriting was really just a kid sitting on a swingset making up songs...I think that's the article she said that in...does anyone know what EXACTLY it was that she said? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Shelley Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: 23 Mar 99 18:40:05 -0800 From: Robin Hall Subject: MM: Patty sings There are two new albums out which feature Patty's singing: "Summerland," by Jon Dee Graham, and "Man vs. Beast," by Troy Young Campbell. Both cd's are great; check 'em out.
