"...is even better now than when they opened the historical Woodstock Festival. Nancy Nevins has too much soul to be white. Like Billie, Nancy sings from vast and probably painful experience with a voice much richer now than in earlier recordings"

Hey, Friend-Buds!

Sunday June 21, the Daily News features a story on Newport 69 Devonshire Downs 40 year anniversary! This event brought “cool” to the once un-hip Valley . Hendrix played twice! Sweetwater played including yours truly. The Daily News sent a reporter and photographer last week, so I’m in the story. Also after midnight Saturday, June 20: www.dailynews.com

Warner Bros Rhino is releasing a few new CD sets, 40 year Woodstock anniversary products, domestic and international! It’s music that‘s never been heard. Sweetwater’s included with 2 songs I wrote that we performed at Woodstock. At last, Warners admits we were there!

A few months ago, Cherry /Revola Records in England licensed from Warner Bros. the first Sweetwater CD and is re-mastering for a new release any day now. Tiffany Anders is writing liner notes. We are going abroad, friend-buds (smile)

There’s talk movie director, Ang Lee, MAY use our “Motherless Child” in Taking Woodstock.

Finally I’m playing an unplugged guitar set at King’s Road Café on Beverly Blvd in West Hollywood, June 23 around 8 pm. Come early. Parking is a challenge and the place is small.

Don’t forget to celebrate.

More news! Catch Paul Berenson's new radio show : The Nick and Paul Show, 3-4pm M-F, Progressive Talk 1490, KIST, Santa Barbara.

Don’t forget to celebrate.

Thanx for the interview, Rona Elliot. I look forward to your History Channel special! More exciting developments loom. And hey, a fan captured Albert and me with Sweetwater at the Fillmore East years ago. See photo below.  Thanks, Bob!" Stay tuned.

Don’t forget to write me at nancy@nancynevins.com if you feel like it, and if you’re new to my site, please read on to catch up on my good, talented, long-time friend, Paul Berenson, and how all this got started. . . .

Paul's a good friend and he is one well-informed music afficionado. Believe it. There's little Paul doesn't know about classical or pop music. Just ask him (smile) Sometimes, you can call him on air at KIST you know.

I spent time with Paul on his radio show in August for the 35th anniversary of Woodstock. You can see some photos of me at the radio station. (It was awfully early and I buzzed up to the station from L.A. at 4 am. I dressed funky, since it's radio-- so-- whatever. Don't judge my scruffy look too hard.)

Paul and I met a hundred years ago, through Chris Huston, Sweetwater's second record producer. Thanks to the Internet we re-connected and Paul offered to help me with a website. He loves Sweetwater and is a serious believer in my music and my writing. Man, how I appreciate that.

“500,000 people heard them at Woodstock. No one heard from them again.” this collection, which the band itself helped compile from their three Reprise albums... features three unreleased sides. Think a jazzier Jefferson Airplane…that’s the tasty material that awaits you here, and all of it’s been out of print for decades.
