Kate Wolf

聽凱特的歌時我們會想起兩個人:
Eva Cassidy和卡彭特。

Kate Wolf(1942-1986)美國人,至少在整個中文搜索中沒有找到資料,
她是上世紀70年代著名的民謠作者和彈唱者,與卡彭特一樣,
凱特在音樂生命的黃金時代因為白血病去世。RHINO公司在她去世後的1986年發行了這張合集,包括了凱特最具代表性的音樂。所唱的曲子都是凱特生前所作,在她逝世﹙年僅44歲﹚二十多年後的今天,這張錄音證明了凱特的歌曲並未被人遺忘。

Kate Wolf (nee Kathryn Louise Allen, January 27 1942 - December 10 1986) was an American folk singer and songwriter. Her songs have been recorded by artists such as Nanci Griffith and Emmylou Harris (whose recording of "Love Still Remains" was nominated for a Grammy Award in 1999). She died in 1986, at age 44, after a long battle with leukemia.
