She wrote a heck of a lot of funny bright insightful songs, and sang them with a cheerful and perky and very New York-y way.
So Cold Pizza For Breakfast is her sort of memoir (she calls it a mem-wha?) and it's fun interesting reading
But for every funny little song like "Cold Pizza" there were a handful of beautiful "character" songs like "Getting Used to Leaving" and "The Kind of Love you Never Recover From", which have found their way into performances by cabaret and Jazz artists and other folkies too.
She was around in the 1970's and was up to her pretty ears in the Fast Folk revival, and twirls a mean baton too.
She then turned around and became the Godmother of new folk music and used her contacts and her reputation to see that lot of new folk music got recorded and a lot of new artists got heard.
She knows how to tell a good story and she knows a lot of interesting people in and out of folk music.
The lady has a lot of depth.
So if this is not the autobigraphy of Christine I was hoping for, it's still a lively read and an enjoyable one.
I like cold Pizza for breakfast
In a pinch cold spaghetti will do
Well there's nothing in this world that I like better
than eating cold pizza with you
Right back at you Chris… (mais)
