Welcome
to Queer Music Heritage. I can hardly believe it, but this is my tenth
anniversary show. I wanted to make it special and I don't think I could
have done any better than to bring you an interview with Holly Near. If
you know anything at all about the Women's Music Movement, then you know
that Holly was one of the leading and earliest pioneers. And this show
will just scratch the surface regarding her long career, a career that
encompasses her work as a singer, producer, actor, author, activist and
teacher. With such a long career covering so many aspects I decided I
would just try to cover a number of her songs, and to let them take us
through the years and tell the story. I'm delighted to share this with
you.

Usually when I feature an artist I try to provide a collection of information about their recordings and career, but in this case Holly's website already does a terrific job, so I'm just going to showcase some things that might be obscure, or just interest me, such as the album shown below (her first appearance on vinyl), or a 1976 article on her from Lesbian Tide, etc, etc.
