So I looked up Bobbie Gentry and her bio.
The reason I couldn't remember her name was that her last performance was on christmas night 1978 on the tonight show with Johnny Carson ( I believe I actually caught it ) and then she retired from music and is living in California.

If you get a chance find a copy of her song FAncy and listen to it carefully. It's her statement on the womens movement . I think between not getting the necessary publicity to stay in the public eye and a movement away from country for the listening public her career was probably cut short.
