I went to the newport jazz festival. Judy collins called me up. She was supposed to take me. Al Kooper had put us in touch and we were supposed to meet and go. Well, Judy stood me up, and she was my hero. It was kind of heartbreaking, I waited and waited and waited and she never came to pick me up to take me to Newport. A day went by and i got a phone call from her and she sounded kind of sheepish. She said somebody had sung one of my songs in a workshop. It was a terrible rendition, she said, but people went crazy. Judy really felt i should be at Newport, so she gave me instructions on how to get there. When I played there, I got that large roar and it made me incredibly nervous.
