The Womenfolk

The Womenfolk were an American folk band from Los Angeles, California.

The Womenfolk were active from 1963 to 1966 and were signed to RCA Records during the folk revival boom of the 1960s.[1] They released several albums, the most successful of which was their self-titled 1964 effort, which reached #118 on the Billboard 200.[2]

The Womenfolk's version of "Little Boxes" was their only hit single, peaking at #83 in April 1964. It was at the time the shortest record (1:03) to make the Billboard Hot 100.

gollark: You have a reasonable point that you can be nice to people inside a conversation but (possibly inadvertently) non-nice to those outside it. I think niceness within conversations is more important, as people outside them can more easily choose not to participate in them, but this doesn't work excellently. Banning discussion of anything some people do not like reading is *a* fix for some of this, but I don't like the tradeoffs, given the wide range of things in this category. Isolating that elsewhere is also not good for various reasons I indicated before. A generalized rule-4-y approach could end up doing basically the same thing as preemptively banning it, and people seem dissatisfied with "ignore the channel for a bit". Thus, I'm unsure of how the issue can be solved nicely and it's worth actually investigating the options.
gollark: What a strange name.
gollark: You are to wait while I:- type- think- move a mouse cursor around somewhat- get distracted by unrelated topics repeatedly
gollark: Too bad, you are to wait.
gollark: Somewhat, maybe. Please hold on while I engage in typing™.
