I just found out that Melanie Safka died a few days ago (23 Jan 2024), age 76. :cry:

I heard her iconic song "Lay Down" when it came out in in 1970, of course, but didn't really understand the meaning back then. This is an extended version...

I think you have to watch it on YouTube. There is a link that is generated when you hit play.
