True Stories and Other Dreams is the ninth studio album by American singer and songwriter Judy Collins, released by Elektra Records in 1973.[1] It peaked at No. 27 on the Billboard Pop Albums charts.[2]
The album included Valerie Carter's "Cook With Honey", which returned Collins to the U.S. pop singles top-forty, as well as Tom Paxton's song "The Hostage" about the 1971 Attica Prison riots. It also included a number of Collins' own compositions, including "The Fisherman Song", which she would later perform on Sesame Street.
