I did find a tidbit on line that I will share with you about yet another Linda Pierre King song, “Autumn Leaves” that does not appear on either CD.  I must say that she has an impressive list of songs for someone about whom no one seems to know anything.  

 

Linda Pierre King travelled through Texas and in 1966, recorded at Accurate Sound in San Angelo.  Most of her songs were recorded solo, but on a couple, some of the Outcasts backed her up.  The owner of the studio, Ron Newdoll recalled her as an attractive folk singer who recorded about 18 songs in his studio.  Nothing of hers would ever be released though, until a couple of decades later.  This version and complete session of ‘Autumn Leaves’ makes it here or anywhere for the first time.  Other artists such as Nat King Cole also covered this famous ballad.”
