Gretchen Phillips (2 Nice Girls) her secret archive (no more) Lesbian singer's archive captures pre-internet gay life | Cornell Chronicle

What good news,,  Gretchen " I never threw away anything that I thought might be lesbian history") has placed her much rumored about archive in the Huan Sexuality category of Cornell University archives .. and now we can see what she saved ... a treasure trove of ephemera and digitalized aural and oral history. SO excited to learn of this today. Yes, i have some history with 2 nice girls (they were not always nice, and they were not 2)   .. but Gretchen, a member of the Texas Music Hall of Fame, immersed her life in preserving lesbian history as she participated in it over the last some 50 years. Thank you Gretchen, thank you, Cornell  ... Ok "ladies" ad some "gnts; time to dive in .....  one small question:  why would you feature a picture, not of the original band which includes songwriter extraordinaire Laurie Freelove but one with the talented Meg Hentges  ???  FYI . bith Freelove and Hentges had solo records which will wow your ears..
