Hello, I found this great album exactly one year ago, and it was completely obscure. Nobody knew anything about Cheryl Dilcher.

This year it is being posted all over the world by various blogspots. That is really cool!
Thank you for posting it. More people need to listen to it.

I have travelled to Allentown last year, to see her old apartment there. You can see the pictures on my own blog.

It is so sad that she is now posthumely becoming a cult idol, I wished I would have found out about her 35 years earlier. I have been a fan of Melanie since 1972, and Cheryl Dilcher is the same genre. I would have liked this album, had I only known it back then!
