Welcome back - so you seee I'm doin this radio show for ten years on public radio back east mixin Tony Bennet's I left my heart in San Francisco with China Cat Sunflower off of aoxomoxia or however the hell you spell that old dead album, and I'm trollin' used record stores pickin up all the stuff that feels right, out of print arlo albums - and I see this picture of Judy and her bee hive hairdo - flip the album over and read the song titles - and well this is really one weird andy williams/country/nashville trainwreck of an album or some one is playing a joke on me - and so that was how you found your way onto the air in beautiful Southern New Jersey. Heck for the money I took a chance - and was blown away - hocka tooka soda cracker does your mama chaw tobacca - I mean come on really !!??!! Well Judy you had airplay from 82 to 92 on the east coast by the beach outside of Atlantic City - we turned some people on so thanks for that! I can't wait to hear your new stuff - oh by the way check out the book I wrote - now that I'm off the air that itch to create had to come out some how and a new book is born.

WOW great to hear your voice on here, it's as great as I remember it...

I was never able to find another copy till now when I finaly googled your name on the internet and discovered your site . Love your voice, you are better than ever and glad to hear you are still recording

Hi Judy , I discovered you first
through Farewell Aldebaran (which is amazing) and Rosebud. Then I got the reissues
of your Elektra albums which sound like they were real fun to make especially
the first one. I recently found a great songbook of yours called "Essays In Sound"
from 64. Great comments from you to illustrate the songs. I must admit to being
a bit disppointed with the CD reissue of Aldebaran as it seems to be a vinyl transcription.
Are the masters available to present it in all its sonic glory ? By the way you
may find it interesting that the village I live in (Airth) has a haunted castle
and strangely a house built in the shape of a pineapple ! Pictures are on the
net if you scan "Airth pineapple". Weird or what ! All the very best to you and

Judy: I feel like I've just
joined a cult. Though I've never sent a fan letter before...I am compelled to
convey my enthusiastic appreciation of your talent. I recently read an article
about you in Discoveries Magazine. Being from your hometown of Chippewa Falls,
and graduating from Mcdonell (1965), I felt a certain kinship. I went to the internet
to do a bit of research. I was able to access some of your music and heard your
voice for the first time. After listening to a few tunes .. I shouted.. Oh My
God!! My wife yelled from another room and asked what all the clammering was about.
I had her listen and told her that I had heard of you way back when. After somebody
told me about a beatnik girl from town who had gone off to New York and became
a folk singer or something like that. I thought...Oh ...Kumbaya...Michael Row
The Boat and the like. Didn't give it much more thought . Boy! was I wrong! You
are the real deal and beyond anything I had imagined. I feel betrayed by my own
prejudice for not discovering you sooner. I just got 3 of your CD's and plan to
get more soon. I've dabbled in playing music and was a DJ for many years. I feel
I have a pretty good ear and am a popular music trivia geek. So, I know without
a doubt that Cher has built her sound stealing alot of your style. Whether she
has given credit, I don't know....Grace Slick too...along with Janis Joplin and
of course, Miss Midler. Pardon my rambling.. but I can't remember when I've been
so knocked out. Your husband Craig is the perfect backup for your singing. I hope
you guys record a thousand more songs. I will buy them all and spread the gospel,
so to speak. Those damn nuns never hipped me to you. I suppose you were to "out
there" for them. Now if I can only get that Salvation Army Song out of my head.
Keep on ,Judy. You far outshined anything I saw on the Grammy show last night.
Your Newest #1 Fan, Tom Sumner

Hi Judy. I am doing some research
about Felix Pappalardi and thought you might remember Felix. I found a small ad
in the NY Times in mid-1963 for the Bitter End. I believe you and the Big 3 may
have shared a few billings there? Felix played bass with them for a month or two
and I'm curious if you might recall this.. thanks and best wishes, Bob

it i do my best to show the older ones around. I even covinced a 25 Year old Friend

Puff Daddy and Cohorts. Best Regards from Germany. It`s great to have you back.

Hi Judy! Can't believe I found
you. Your web page is AWESOME! I am a fan of yours from way back, in the 80's,
when you wrote "Might As Well Have A Good Time" for Crosby Stills & Nash. (I love
that song) Then I got into your own Elektra & Reprise days, and now I see what
all the fuss is about. You are awesome.. Heard that you are going to play an multi-night
engagement in Hollywood in a couple months? Any truth to that rumour? Hope so,
because I want to see you perform LIVE! Linda

Judy, I originally saw you at
the Troubadore in the 60's and my friend Mike and I were in San Diego for your
"return". You may remember us as we were the two in front-center. The show was
great and it's good to see your music available again. I do have a favor, no biggie
either way, but a friend of mine works for a company which is setting up an auction
to raise money for cancer patients, esp. children. The money goes to "One Step
At A Time" I think. If you would just send an autographed CD, I would gladly pay
for the CD. Please let me know and i will send the cost of the CD and the address
to send it to. Thanks, Lloyd

get the chords to "Till The Real Thing Comes Along" the way you do it ?? It is
A then D then I get lost ...??? I met Tim through the San Diego County Folk Song
Society. I just started playing and singing with them. Great fun. He and others
say they like my voice. Hell its my voice - what do I know? Love your dog pictures

Hi Judy & Craig. I'm not a big
fan of Judy yet, but I guess I'm on the way to become one of the biggest. I get
to Judy's music after listen to Craig Doerge backing other artists. I've been
for years a fan of Crosby, Stills & Nash and loved those Crosby/ Doerge songs,
and "Might as well have a good time" (Masterpiece!!) too. So, I finally decided
to get Craig Doerge's CD... i've been listening to it for about a week and I can't
stop. What a wonderful disc! Features one of the best songs i've ever heard!!!
Sure I'm getting other CDs of Judy in the future. Thanks for doing such a wonderful
music and shareing it with us. And thanks for being so kind with fans too. Best
wishes from Spain, Alvaro. Alvaro

Henske" album, because I think I could recite it by heart - I played it when I
was in the service in the early sixties. It was a great album, but I missed placed
it. Is it available on CD? On your website it looks like it is just in album form.

LONG time fan of yours and so happy that you are out there still making music.
When will you perform back east again? PLEASE PLEASE COME SOON! You should play

Dear Ms. Henske, I just rented
a DVD of "The Judy Garland Show", and saw you perform as a guest on one of the
shows. You blew me away, and have made me a fan. I think you rendition of "God
Bless the Child" is the most moving one I have ever heard. I also loved your humor
and wit when explaining the blues. Thanks for the amazing musical legacy. Sincerely,

performances. I did web seaches to find out more about you and where to get my
hands on CD's of yours. I've bought all that HMV had in Vancouver! You are absolutely
incredible! Your voice, style, sense of humour, and presentation was decades before
it's time. Both Cher and Bette Midler must have modelled their performances and
delivery after your groundbreaking style. A new and astonished fan, Stephen Middleton

Dreams" and that he sent that album to me also. I am still listening to Fred.
And of course ALL of your albums and CDs. I am eternally grateful to both of you.

Boy,am I glad I got to live

50's movie called Hootenanny Hoot. Mainly I fastforwarded so I could listen to
the music only. Sorry to say I had never heard of you before and somehow I'm surprised
as I've always loved music. I was fascinated to hear your songs and immediately
"googled" you hoping to find more info. What a delight to see I can order a CD.

Thanks to TCM, we were reminded

told us that you are back on stage and recording again. Three cheers and good

rather liberally.) d&b - Seabeck, WA

at the end. Then this evening (Nov 18, 05) I finally got to view the whole show
and find out who that voice was! I must say you were and are outstanding! Your
voice is a treasure!

Judy, Today is Friday, November
18. My wife and I just finished watching "Hootenanny Hoot" on Turner Classic movies.
I'm 50 years old, but had never seen you before (as best I can recall) before
tonight. I was mightly impressed by both numbers you performed in the movie and
asked my wife to look you up on the Internet as soon as the show ended. I'm very
happy to have found you, your music touches our souls as well as our funny bones.
Best wishes to you. ---Alex & Karen Sidey

Hi Judy, I am a huge fan/student

I was captivated by your performances. I am sorry I missed you last time you were
in the area, but will definitly catch you next time!

At 60, I saw and heard you for
the first time in Hootnanny Hoot-- you blew the doors off my house, cracked my
glasses, and made me realize I could now die happy, having seen one of the most
astounding Talents ever born. Jayzus GaL, but you are the very, very best!

Dear Judy Henske New release
of "Aldebaran" in UK this month on Radioactive label CD. Is it authorised and
legal? Have bought a copy. Hope you get your royalties. Fabulous, fabulous music!!!
Have waited years for this on CD. Cannot understand why Collectors Choice Music
didn't release it with "Rosebud". Is "Western Wisconsin" about your childhood
in Chippewa Falls? Was there really a "carnival cowboy" and a "cousin Nancy"?
Best wishes from the UK Jim Seal

HI JUDY, i have just recently
discovered you & your stuff. ALL GREAT!! I can not help but wonder if one of my
other favorites, Nick Cave, is also into yr. material, as i hear about 20 parallels
between your first album and much of his material! leitmotifs, or unintentional
tributes' who can say. Anyhow i really only know the 1st elektra LP and now singing
California, both are sooooooo good! I love you, judy, let me know if you ever
head out east to perform, or whatever.THANKS!!!!

You probably think that i have
been living under a rock, but i had no idea you were still performing. I have
your albums in storage because i dont have room for them in an apartment so i
havent heard you in years. Was so happy to be able to order you on CD. Can't wait
till you come thru LA again. My ex used to play with Jim Kweskin and the Jug Band
back East and introduced me to your work. Now I can spin you in the car! Great
to be connected again. Be well and hope to see you perform soon. Caio!

Dear Judy, I'm really excited
about the new album, which I've just ordered. Yippee. Seeing you and hearing you
sing when Saturday night meant Hootenanny on the TV when I was a teenager is one
of my enduring and treasured memories. I've always loved your work. Like you,
I've been around the block a few times. Nude dancer in New York, costume designer
on and off Broadway, stylist, playwright. Somehow escaped AIDS when almost all
my friends didn't. I usually describe myself as a tired old whore. Now, I've washed
up in London for the past 13 years, where I continue to write and chair the theatre
commitee for the Writers' Guild of Great Britain. To make a living, I do consulting
in 'branding strategy, which may sound like hot iron rods and nervous cows, but
is actually about creating personalities for brands. While my company is real
little (just me and the dog), I work with companies like Drambuie and Dunhill.
Now, i'm setting up my own website for my company, which is called Sassafras.
I'm wondering if it might be possible to talk about leasing the rights to 'Sticky
Sticky Gumdrop' to play as music on the site (since my dog is the 'New Business
Director')? I have no experience at all this, although I have a contact at Warner
Chappell who will answer questions for me (As a writer, I was in the BMI Musical
Theatre Workshop in New York for years, and now work with Mercury Musical Development
over here). Well, it's just a thought. You never know until you ask. if you like,
I could send you a little booklet about the company -- and a picture of the dog.
I'm off on holiday this afternoon and won't be back until Halloween. No matter
what happens with this, please know that I hold your work in great fondness and
it has given me enormous joy and fun through the whole of my adult life. Many
thanks and all the best. I really look forward to getting the new album. David

I first discovered your magic
through the work of Andrew Vachss. From the first time I heard "High Flyin' Bird"
I was hooked. "'Till The Real Thing Comes Along" is another one of my favourites.
You are a phenomenal artist; one of the truly great women of the world. Any chance
of you performing in Toronto, Ontario any time soon? You are spectacular. Thank
you for doing what you do, and for doing it so well.

You were my favorite female
in my last years of high school, 1963, 64. Then I joined the Navy and here I am
on the net looking for Tim Buckley's "Buzzin' Fly", and I come across Jerry Yester
and a picture of you, and read that Tom Waits was also produced by Jerry Yester.
That pretty much completes the circle for me and my musical taste since high school;
it seems I have great musical taste all my post pubesent life. I've still got
a vinal "High Flying Bird" and whatever else you did in the '60s. Unfortunately,
Judy, I'm a flag waving American right wing neocon according to the entertainment
industry; I still love you and the irreverence I remember and I never liked blondes,
always brunette tall girls; maybe we can both be libertarians and keep the dreams.
"Just like a buzzin' fly, I came into your life." All the best, Dave Westphal

I got that Farewell Aldebaran-album
as a birthday-gift about the time it was released and from then on i was a fan.
At the time i was a musician myself and i was certainly not listening much to
folksingers or anything of all that protest-hype.... But Farewell Aldebaran...
It's sooo very special. That strong voice...the bittersweet harmonies... and rather
flimsy arrangements..and at the same time very personal. At that time i did not
knew anything about that folk-singing background of yours. -And honestly, i really
didn't care much for folk-music then, but you made me listen up - you soulmate
you. Too bad we didn't met!

is no copy on the right side of the page where one is directed in order to calculate

are generated from this site? Because of this flaw,my guess: NONE! I so sorry/

You have a whole new generation
of fans. I was listening to "Wade in the Water" while I cleaned my kitchen this
morning and my 3 and 6 year old daughters came running in screaming "That's the
Tikki Tikki lady!" I have officially promised them that we will try to make a
trip to CA to hear you sing sometime soon. They even promised to be good for 3
whole days each way in the car if I would take them. I thought you'd be amused
to know...and perhaps we'll actually get out to see you. We're just crazy enough
to do it and I'd love to hear you perform live again. Thanks for giving my girls
and me such great music to share!

was totally blown away, and has now purchased every CD available. I had one of
your first albums years ago, was a huge fan, and can not believe that I finally
got to see you perform. When are you performing again? How about Rancho Nicasio
in Marin? It is a great spot. How about in L.A.? We will travel. You are fabulous!

Somehow I missed you in the
60s but recently found you on NPR one afternoon in the car. Pulled into Borders
Books and ordered "She Sang California". Just great! I lay back on the bed listening
with headphones. Laughed to tears over "Maurice Maurice". And my wife's laugh
(lost her to cancer in May) came to me - she would have loved it - and the tears
came all the more salty and warm. Keep on keepin' on babe, you're a joy! Jack

For those who couldn't get to
the sold out San Francisco/MillValley shows (all four sold out)...they were extraordinary!!
In four shows, Judy sang "High Flying Bird" once, "Hooka Tooka" twice, "Salvation
army Song" twice, "Ace in the Hole" once, and EVERYTHING ELSE WAS NEW MATERIAL
from the last two CD's or, even, unrecorded material. What other artist, said
to be making a "comeback" would be that brave/sure of herself? Judy was hilarious,
and heartbreaking....wild to see audience wiping away tears from laughing, then
the same during a sad tune. "Cocktail World" back to back with "Western Wisconsin"
is almost TOO MUCH. All of this with just the (brilliant) piano playing of Craig
Doerge, not a full band. She needs to be recording a CD a month. We'll buy them
all. May she continue for a whole OTHER career!! Will

Judy, I have been a fan all my life - you have had such a huge influence on me
and my erstwhile career!! And, as a college DJ, "The Peggy Atwood Folk Show" at
the University of Vermont, I played your albums to a totally devoted cult following
in the late 60's early 70's. So great to see you rocking on!! Especially since
so many of the greats have chosen to pass, most recently John Herald here in the
Woodstock area. Lotsa love.

Dear Judy & Craig, My

I saw a lot of people at the Ash Grove, the Troubador, and various other hangouts
around L.A., I never got a chance to see you, one of my very favorite performers.
Now I have and it's a memory I'll carry forever. Thanks for one of the great experiences
in my life. Love to you both! Dennis Shayne (and wife, JoAnn, by proxy) P.S. -

Sad tale: Our friend, Alain
Ronay, up from Los Angeles, was our house guest for the past few days, and we
noticed in the Chronicle that you would be at Biscuit and Blues, so we went with
high expectations, but alas you were sold out (good for you!). We told Alain about
the great job you did at the Freight and Salvage the night the lights went out
-- and came on immediately when you finished!

We met in San Diego, early 60's,
coffeehouse on El Cajon Blvd; I've lived here in the hippie hills for 30 years,
and of the maybe 30 albums I could not bring myself to get rid of, in spite of
the fact that I haven't had a turntable for these years, were your two. I wanted
to come to Mill Valley to see you, but they were sold out. Maybe I can get down
to Monterey next week, but for sure I can get CDs now and hear you once again
that way. Good for you for being a good mom.

Dear Judy, It was such a treat
to meet (and SING with!) you and Craig last night with Diana at Biscuits and Blues.
You are truly a class act--and a hoot and a half. It was an honor to share a stage
with you (although I couldn't help wondering if you were wishing Bonnie and Maria
were available ;-P....). Thank you so much!! Love Heidi (the OTHER opera princess)

Judy, I wanted to let you know
what an impact you have had on my family. Your first album was one of my uncle's
favorites all though college. Every weekend my dads family would get together
and sing after much jubilation. "Hooka Tooka" and "Salvation Army Song" were two
of their favorites. Most of my fathers family has since passed on and the memories
of these nights of great food, drink and song are all we have left. My mom lives
in San Diego and reconnected with your music. It has been really fun talking with
my aunts and cousins about watching you perform in Santa Cruz and I copied your
original cd for them all. It has brought us all back to the happy and nutty times
we shared. My 3 kids like to sing "Hooka Tooka" quite loudly in Costco. I'm not
sure if I should thank you for that or not....We get a few funny looks. Anyway,
I just wanted to let you know that your reemergence has made my family very happy.

When my late wife and I saw
you here in the '60s we were stunned by your talent. It was love at first note!
I loved the little comment you made about Dave Guard going to Austrailia to do
something with or to sheep. Beautiful!!! After the show we met you briefly and
then offered to take you band to the motel where you were staying. That was in
the good old days when I had a 1953 Hudson Hornet and it had all the room for
them and some to spare. All I can say at this point is you are a wonderful, talented
and beautiful person. Your husband is so lucky. Love and God Bless, Bob Zirbel

Judy: The piece on muskie fishing
was fantastic. I grew up in eastern Iowa in the 50s and 60s, and the annual fishing
trip to far northern Minnesota for northerns, walleys, and small mouth was part
of the experience. You are on the money about walleyes not fighting, and just
dying, except that it applies to big walleyes as well. A very overrated fish.
Keep up the good work in all areas. When are you appearing in Southern California?

Judy Henske is a tremendous
song stylist, comedienne, and all around personality. This was a most special
performance for a large crowd that really knew Judy, and appreciated her...and
she so sincerely acknowledged the audience near the end of the show that it brought
tears to me. But that was not the only time the tears came! I was laughing and
crying to tears throughout the show, continuously. Mostly laughing. Judy's irreverence
toward art and towards things 'social',(she lives in LA), her commentaries, and
lyrics, were simply side-splitting to me. She is ONE SINGULAR gal, and her husband
accompanies her with great humor, and skill, and sensitivity, on the piano, and
also as a sort of straight man. Judy reminds me of Lucy and/or Bette Midler combined,
and of all the great women of the theatre, an original to the core. The pathos
and style with which she delivered her signature song HIGH FLYIN' BIRD, is not
to be matched. I believe her second verse there differs from what our JS uses....
The same for some of her blues choices which were so deeply felt by her, particulary
a woman's drinking song which tore my heart up...... Ray and I were standing near
the back of a standing room only crowd. Seated near the stage were Bonnie Raitt
and Maria Muldaur, who both got up to join Judy for the encore, of two sets of
mostly all original songs of Judy's. This last being a little song the kids would
sing outside the whorehouse when the cops has left the area....and the coast was
clear!!!! This was a sing-along and Judy says very dryly, "now ya can feel just
like a bunch a little kids outside of a whorehouse....." Ya just had to be there.....every
moment was priceless. The One--The Only JUDY HENSKE! This review has been posted
at: JeffersonstarshipSF.com (go to ADECK) and also at EMannStudio.com (go to EDECK)

throughout the entire evening. You and your husband are a fantastic team---Ray
and I are like that, too! i wrote to you one before from a different location,
I think. I am a painter and i forund tour wonderfuully irreverent attitude to
art completely refreshing and also gut bustingly FUNNY! OHHH your comments and
lyrics were priceless. IF you want to see paintings go to EMannSTUDIO.com. YOU
are a singular talent..... My husband has spoken of you since the early day and
HIGH FLYING BIRD.... We are friends with the band Jefferson Starship... And also

My note to the SF Chronicle:
To: pink@sfchronicle.com THANKS for the article on Judy Henske. I used to drive
up from Castle AFB, Merced, to catch her in SF clubs. That was in 1960-1963 or
so. Then... silence. When I asked about her on my radio show, somehow she heard
about it, and phoned in. She was gracious, funny and very hip. Glad to know she
is back in action. I recommend her highly! (Jim Eason, formerly of KGO radio)

Look at you go, Judy. Look at
you go! The site looks great and so do you. Looking around and reading the great
reviews of the new album (Yes. I still call them albums), I'm struck by the "Judy
comes across as a gutsy broad" comment. I know lots of people see you that way,
but what many don't see is the sweet and vulnerable side you rarely show. I've
been remembering the day up at Jack's when you were writing material for your
Live-in-the-Studio album. You and I were both starting to take off, careerwise
(evidenced by the fact that His Majesty Jack Nitzsche was producing both of us).
And we were both pretty much scared out of our wits. You were writing some comic
patter to set off some of your songs and asking me every five minutes, "Do you
think this is funny?" I recall thinking. Man, I guess it's okay to be unsure of
myself and where this wild ride is taking me. Henske is. Anyway, not to embarrass
you, just to say it's great to see both of us enduring. Survivors. Come visit
me if you get the inclination. www.boblind.com. Great about your new stuff.

Hi Judy, I don't know if you
remember me or not, but I was Kate's friend at Pasadena Christian School many
eons ago. I lost touch with Kate after high school but never forgot about her.
I've thought about her over the years and wondered what ever happened to her.
She was such a beautiful person - both inside and out. So, thanks to the internet,
I thought I would try to look her up and came across your website (great site
by the way). So, I was wondering if you could at least let me know how Kate is
doing and what she's up to and if possible, give me her email address. She was
a lot of fun and a good friend back in those awkward days of junior high. I hope
you are well and that life has been good for all of you. All the best, Monique

HOOTENANNY shows. You are on one of them and really impressed me. What a fantastic
and charismatic performer! You looked great, too! Anyway, if you are in fact reading
this, I'd like to hear from you. Do you recall anything about the show? You sang
one song with the Dillards, remember? It's such a thrill for me now to just know
that I might actually be in touch with you at last and might hear from you. I
did a search for you on the web. That's how I found this site. Thanks for providing
a way for us fans to contact you.

Am ordering your latest CD. Listen to CS&N "Might as well have a good time" often.
Did not realize you are the author. Wonderful fun tune. The WHSingers that you
were a member of triggered my interest in folk music (as did the Weavers, Seeger,
and others). Love your version of Nobdoy knows you when your'e down and out. Was
just learning the guitar then. You and your style motivated me greatly. Have been

I love most of your albums.
When are you going to re-release Farewell Aldebaran? Or is Yester the problem
here? My personal bootleg CD I made for myself from some good recordings I had
will have to do the trick I s'pose. Your records are a treasured part of my collection...
but 'farewell'--missing... it's going for outrageous prices on e-bay, and I'd
rather give you my money than some chump wheeler-dealer whose never listened to
the thing. I guess you don't feel the same way about "horse on a stick"... I love
it, though, and have my own cover of it. If you're ever in chi-town, we'll do
a family jam. (of the musical kind) PS, I just saw Gang of Four at the metro,
and their drummer is a huge fan of yours. Proving again, that your hipness permeates
all genres. I wouldn't mind hearing your voice thru a vocoder again. Lata' John.

Dear Judy--I heard you singing
(with Steve Brainderd sometimes, and sometimes solo) in Oklahoma City at a little
coffee house called the Buddhi (sic, I think) in the summer of 1964. I thought
you were unbelievably, breathtakingly good. I loved your singing, your presence,
your humor, the gutsy raw earthiness you projected. I heard you quite a few times
that summer and I always wondered what happened to you. This morning, for some
reason, I put "Judy Henske" into Google and was delighted to find this site. I've
ordered a bundh of CDs and can't wait to receive them.

Hi Judy. Just received you 3
cds I didnt have. Thanks. I first saw you on tv here when you were in Melbourne
back in the 60s and rushed out and got you 1st 2 Electra albums. Over the years
got all the others. Recently discovered you had resurfaced and recorded 2 new
albums. I was so delighted as I never knew what happened to you. The 2 new albums
are way beyond my expectations, Absolutely love them. The only thing I need now
to die happy would be for you to release a dvd of one of your concerts. Cheers.

I traveled to San Francisco, Los Angeles and San Diego. I can't remember where
or when I saw Judy sing but I became an instant fan. I fell in love with Judy.
One of my treasures is an LP simply titled - JUDY HENSKE by Elektra Records. Some
of my favorite songs are Low Down Aligator, Empty Bed Blues, Kooka Tooka and the
Salvation Army Song. Actually, I like all 11 songs on the album.

available on CD? "Raider" has been a fave of mine for35+ years now and it would
be great to have the whole album on cd and never need to face the every-few-years-when-the-tape-wears-out
pain of digging out the turntable and the only-played-to-make-a-tape-LP. Please
let me know if it is. It's really good to learn how well you're doing--I've treasured
your music my entire adult life. Thanks Janice

guten tag, i´ve been searching
for your records over here for at least 5 years. impossible to find any of them
neither new nor second hand. is there a possibility to order your records by a
distributor within the eu (via great britain,france etc...) because the costs
for shipping and tax would be immense by ordering via usa, thanks a lot

Hi Judy, Just heard
you for the first time yesterday. Someone in the band I'm in produced a copy of
your album with Dark Angel on it. Wow! We were nearly speechless with the power
of your voice and the lyrics of that song. We would like to cover that song and
I was wondering if you can point me in the direction of finding the actual lyrics.
We're trying to copy them off the CD but I always worry we'll miss something crucial
when we do that - or get a word wrong. I found your vocal styling to be truly
captivating. What a communication you made in that song. Thanks!!!! rakini chinery

Hi Judy and Craig, What a terrific
time we had Friday night! Judy you just keep getting better. You connected with
your audience in such a way that even those who'd never heard of you wanted to
know and hear more. In the old days, I could only read of you appearing in various
nightclubs and fantacise about being there, now I can actually be there! WOW!
You've always meant so much to me Judy. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Take care. Lots of love, Irene

I was talking to my sister the
other day on the phone. "Whatever happened to that woman, you know, who sang Baltimore
Oriole." "Judy Henske? Ah the secret love of my young life. I dunno what happened
to her. She must have dropped out of sight." I first heard Judy on an fm radio
show hosted by Les Claypool in L.A. where I lived at the time. I bought the first
two albums at Tectron Records on Fairfax I believe it was. They caught the ear
of my sister, three years younger, and they were about the only one's in my collection
she liked. Well through the magic of Google, it turns out Judy Henske not only
did not drop out of sight, but that she is more beautiful than ever and even better
still making music. I couldn't help but buy some cd's and send them to my sister
who still lives in Long Beach. Won't she be surprised? Congrats Judy on your still
thriving career and thank you for introducing me to the blues. I still have the
vinyl but my turntable packed up a few years ago. Kindest regards from Canada.

I had wanted my daughter
Kate to hear your stuff, but I hadn't been able to find my old LPs, of course.
Then my birthday rolled around, and she was able to find reissued CDs of your
first two. "Holy shit, holy shit" was all I could say for a couple of minutes.
Then we put 'em on to play, and she said "Man, Cass Elliot ripped her off BIG
time, didn't she?" "Yeah", sez me, "Judy pretty much invented the genre." We raised
that girl right, anyway. Galen

amongst my mother's old LPs and fell in love. Then I lost track of you for many
years, taking every opportunity in the meantime to regale every friend of mine
who hadn't heard of Judy Henske with my brassiest a capella rendering (or is it
rending?) of "The Salvation Army Song". And now you're availaqble on several CDs!
Hurrah! I'd love to catch you live, so if you're ever playing in L.A., please
