Odetta - "House of the Rising Sun" (Live in concert, 2005)
(December 31, 1930 - December 2, 2008)

"The folk repertoire is our inheritance. Don't have to like it, but we need to hear it. I love getting to schools and telling kids there's something else out there. It's from their forebears, and its an alternative to what they hear on the radio. As long as I am performing, I will be pointing out that heritage that is ours."
- Odetta

"The first thing that turned me on to folk singing was Odetta."
- Bob Dylan


RIP Odetta

2. She was on NPR this morning singing Amazing Grace - not crazy about that song..
...as I'm not particularly religious - but that VOICE! Incredible.

And yes she is beautiful.
