Before Dylan, There Was Connie Converse. Then She Vanished.
Connie Converse was a pioneer of what's become known as the singer-songwriter era, making music in the predawn of a movement that had its roots in the Greenwich Village folk scene of the early 1960s.But her songs, created a decade earlier, arrived just a moment too soon.They didn't catch on.And by the time the sun had come up in the form of a young Bob Dylan, she was already gone.
