As I think I say on one of my earlier posts here, she seemed to be covering a lot of white singer/songwriters at the time. Seemed a bit strange for somebody so vocally into black power.
But most of them are very good versions.
I love her version of the Bee Gees song In The Morning. Not sure where the original comes from, I've got it on a '71 live set by them though.

THis is the compilation I discovered her music from the era on. Used to be around quite a bit as a reduced price cd in the local chain cd shop about 10 years ago, possibly a little earlier.
