DITTO For The Death Around the Same Time (March 22nd This Year, Nine Months Ago Today NZ-Time) of A Beloved Singer(-Songwriter, I Believe) of My Mum's, Julie Felix...

...a singer who evidently visited and performed here in my hometown of Dunedin back in the day (the only such singer my Mum has ever mentioned going to hear)... ...apparently Britain's own adopted daughter and first home-bred folk singer... ...whose vocal talents have been ably lent to such folk classics as Blowin' In The Wind ... Masters of War ... Don't Think Twice, It's All Right ...interestingly all hits of that seminal sixties' folk singer-songwriter Bob Dylan (alongside Joan Baez)... Also known for stunning renditions of great old kiddies' favourites like Goin' To The Zoo  & Morningtown Ride ... ...plus let's not forget those other two classic hits, Needle of Death  and Guantanamera ...
