I'm one of Buffy's biggest fans. Great video...a blast from the past.

Wow. She's beautiful! And her song still brings tears to my eyes, especially when she sings it and especially when our country and the world need it the most... like now.

(Thanks, Andy)

She has been speaking out (singing) for the cause of human dignity and peace for decades. A true woman of conscience. Thanks for posting this.

Beautiful! I love it as much now as I did then.
Just though that maybe you'd like to see something that's relativey new, but brings me a lot of joy and hope for peace every time I view it:

Let me know what you think....

that takes me way back, thanks. she was a great help for focussing my attention 40 years back.

Sallie...what a wonderful video. Loved it. Thanks.

Thanks trit. I always despair when I think about her history in the US as far as political activism is concerned. She was blackballed by the government...records taken off the shelves...radio stations refused to play her music. It's really sad. Her voice was silenced here...for the sake of what? It just pisses me off.

She's done well elsewhere though. When I want to buy her music, I go to Winnipeg. She's loved in Canada.

Thanks again.

buffy st marie is one of the most important figures in the rebirth of folk music. i agree, she deserves much more recognition for her contribution.

richie havens is another.

Thanks trit. I totally agree. Richie Havens...love his music too.

It makes me happy! Just goes to show you how much alike we all really are - especially when it comes to "happy dancing."

This reply is a little late in coming, but thank you for putting this up. I missed her when she came into town earlier this summer.

Thanks you Andy. Buffy is a true American patriot and deserves much more acclaim than she has gotten. We should all be as outspoken and talented as Buffy!
