I had not heard about this before. In a quote from Carolyn Hester on "americansongwriters.com", Hester told The Austin Chronicle in 2008, “Buddy was playing his first concert in London in a movie theatre. When showtime came, the lights dimmed and the audience could hear an organ playing as an old pipe organ rose up from below the stage. Buddy was sitting on the organ and singing ‘Black Is the Color of My True Love’s Hair,’ which was on my Coral album. He was there when I was recording it so I never knew. … He influenced me, surely, so for me to know he’d done anything I did just knocked me out.”
