I remember being mortified when a friend told me, back in 1990, that Shawn had just been playing at The Dominion in London, supporting Blue Nile. Earlier that year I had bought 'Steady On' - after hearing the last 20 seconds of the title track on the radio - (I clearly remember buying the album - on vinyl - and listening to it on headphones three times in a row, all the way through, as soon as I got home). I had also not long bought Blue Nile's 'Hats' album - which remains one of my all time favourites - and 'A Walk Across the Rooftops'. Paul Buchanan has an incredible voice. To have seen Shawn and Blue Nile on the same night would have made me a very happy man!! Is there anyone on the list who went to any of the gigs on that tour? Any 'first time Shawn' experiences would be interesting too. I would have loved to have seen her in the days she played in Buddy Miller's band or with Lucy Kaplansky in the Fast Folk era. Paul PS. I was recently sent a long review of her UK gig with MCC in Birmingham earlier this month, which was in the latest Folkwax e-zine. I can't seem to find it on their website yet - but this is the URL quoted: http://www.visnat.com/entertainment/music/folkwax/default.cfm and the article is titled "Mary Chapin Carpenter & Shawn Colvin: Give It Up For The Incredible Sony Sisters!"
