If Melissa Etheridge had a hippie big sister who hung out with Lucinda Williams, that would be Beth Elliott.
Bio / Background
Before "women's music" was a genre, before Olivia Records came to be, there were lesbian hippies. Like all hippies, some of them brought guitars to coffeehouses and sang original songs. One of these lesbian hippies was a young San Francisco Bay Area native named Beth Elliott, who while still a teenager had penned a doo-wop lesbian love ballad. "Teen Love," and a women's liberation answer to the "Stand By Your Man" genre called "The Ballad of the Oklahoma Women's Liberation Front." These turned into lesbian activist favorites in the Bay Area and Los Angeles.
Running afoul of the emerging radical dyke feminist political correctness police, Beth found herself blacklisted as a writer and musician for a solid decade. Trying to find her way outside the community, Beth took part in the Haight-Ashbury revival of the mid-1970s, gaining neighborhood popularity at coffeehouses and street fairs, and even being heard live on the famous underground FM radio station KSAN.
