Judy Collins: "Music Reminds Us That We're Human Beings"

Tony Stewart, New Musical Express, 30 October 1971

LIKE A CHILD Judy Collins posed for photographers at a special reception held for her this week to welcome her back to Britain for the first time in two years. As the flash bulbs popped she talked; excited talk, as if to say I want to tell all — and that has never really happened on her visits before. She was unperturbed by the melee of well-wishers, recording company executives and journalists who decided this was the opportunity to say the words they had stored up for so long.

Total word count of piece: 1963
