My > question is... > How do you get the 10 track Love cd? (It was me, not Jeff who mentioned the Live cd...) I got my copy of the "Live in San Francisco" 10-track promo several years ago at a Record & CD Fair, I think that would be the best place to look for it. Though I have no idea if it still shows up at CD Fairs nowadays. It was released in 1994 or 1995 I think, so that's been a while... The "Mummers' Dance" cd-single that has the live version of "Stolen child" on it as well is available from Quinlan Road, http://www.quinlanroad.com/ Hope this helps.

Have just been listening to Marianne Nowottny's Afraid of me..She's a 16 year old girl who sounds like PJ Harvey if Polly Jean was more into poetry recitals to free form jazz stuff.

Occasionally too self absorbed >stuff, but powerful anyway. Don Keller has been going to see her perform in New York for quite some time now and has been raving, but I haven't had the pleasure yet. I do recall hearing her CD while sleeping in the back of the car on the way home from a late night concert. Apparently I opened an eye, asked if we were listening to Fiona Apple in Bizarro World, and went back to sleep. :) +==========================================================================+ | Meredith Tarr meth@smoe.org | | New Haven, CT USA http://www.smoe.org/~meth | +==========================================================================+ | "things are more beautiful when they're obscure" -- veda hille | | *** TRAJECTORY, the Veda Hille mailing list: *** | | *** http://www.smoe.org/meth/trajectory.html *** | +==========================================================================+ ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 2 Mar 2000 22:12:21 -0500 From: Ofer Inbar Subject: Judith Edelman at WBRS tomorrow!
