Hell yes woot!

I posted about her couple of times with alot of crickets invading those threads disbelief lol

Don't touch me, unless you love me, don't do it sweetheart!

Love love loooove her voice love and her version of Ain't That Peculiar is my fave.

She quit the biz in the early 70's, changed her name and is a new born Christian. According to that album's liner notes, she - if I'm not mistaken - she's working in a children's rehabilitation centre in Nevada.

From the breif interview she did for that album, it seems that she wants that part of her life dead. Its a shame she feels that way coz she's def an exceptional singer.
