That is the question I have asked myself for many years now. I became a fan of hers when the Mamas and the Papas were the rage, and followed her and rooted for her when she went solo. I took her advice on how to "Make Your Own Kind Of Music", and it has served me well. She certainly influenced my thinking towards Women's rights back in the day when that was not popular,but she bravely and boldly pressed on, getting little credit for it. By Her example, I tried to impress upon my daughters to be strong, independant women.
What compels people like RBC who is "Simply commited to preserving Cass' Legacy in the truest and most complete ways". Why is her fan base still growing after all these years? The admiration, love , and respect for her is most evident on this very website, which I look forward to visiting often for information on whats new and where to get it. And oh yeah, She could make ANY song hit home either softly or with power! Such a beautiful voice! I most certainly could go a lot further than this, however, the answer to this question has eluded me for many years. So I must ask someone...
