Here's a link to her performing "The Light" on Jools; it's another song from this album. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IRuQUN2vHAM Ellen "Literature stops in 1100.

Wayne?). oh well. but the music on the show has gotten so much better. - -- r b-j rbj@audioimagination.com "Imagination is more important than knowledge." ------------------------------ End of ecto-digest V16 #1842 ****************************
