Linda Perhacs was apparently the "it" girl in her high school -- homecoming queen, the girl all the boys wanted to date, the girl that all the other girls wanted to be, the lead singer in the high school musical... then she graduated, and in 1970 released her one and only album, Parallelograms, to no notice and zero acclaim. This song, "Hey, who really cares?" off of that album, might well have been its final description... except for the Internet. At some point the album started bubbling around in the psychedelic underground as the only female psychedelic folk artist they'd encountered... and you'll have to Google for the rest of the story.
