Subject: RE: Anne Lister From: The Borchester Echo Date: 16 Dec 07 - 03:38 AM I'm mightily relieved to find out that Anne Lister has not flown too close to the sun, melted her wings and tumbled into the Aegean. As someone remarked yesterday about Martin Simpson, I do wish people wouldn't start threads with just a name. You open them fearing an obit.

Subject: RE: Anne Lister -Thank you From: Anne Lister Date: 16 Dec 07 - 07:12 AM *blush* No, Diane, I'm still breathing ... just as well I learnt how to swim, eh? And the Aegean has a lot of salt to aid buoyancy.... Anne |
Subject: RE: Anne Lister -Thank you From: Scooby Doo Date: 16 Dec 07 - 07:15 AM Its good to have you back from the Aegean Sea Anne. Love Yasmin. |
Subject: RE: Anne Lister -Thank you From: Willa Date: 16 Dec 07 - 10:23 AM Hope you will get to Cottingham Live again, Anne. It was a great pleasure to hear you. |
Subject: RE: Anne Lister -Thank you From: Anne Lister Date: 16 Dec 07 - 12:05 PM I'm going to be at the York folk club (Black Swan) on April 10th, if that's any good to you, Willa ...and I'd love to come back to Cottingham if only someone would book me! It's a bit of a long drive otherwise. But thanks for the kind remarks - much appreciated on a cold day! Anne |
Subject: RE: Anne Lister -Thank you From: Brendy Date: 16 Dec 07 - 12:27 PM Do you mind if I put a link to you on my website, Anne? B. |
Subject: RE: Anne Lister -Thank you From: katlaughing Date: 16 Dec 07 - 03:12 PM Beautiful, thanks for the link, Giok. Lucky you, Mrrzy! |
Subject: RE: Anne Lister -Thank you From: Anne Lister Date: 16 Dec 07 - 04:15 PM Brendy, go right ahead! Still blushing here ... Anne |
Subject: RE: Anne Lister -Thank you From: Brendy Date: 16 Dec 07 - 04:47 PM Done! Thanks, and good luck... B. |
Subject: RE: Anne Lister -Thank you From: GUEST,Mrr at work Date: 17 Dec 07 - 08:24 AM Anne/Tabster, when you write that "the youngest brother cried" in The Small Black Cat, could you mean the youngest brother thrived? Did the others even eat the fish? |
Subject: RE: Anne Lister -Thank you From: AllisonA(Animaterra) Date: 17 Dec 07 - 11:13 AM And will you ever come back to the Old Songs Festival, dear? |
Subject: RE: Anne Lister -Thank you From: Anne Lister Date: 17 Dec 07 - 12:08 PM I'd LOVE to come back to Old Songs .... just need to be booked! And as to the brother in the Small Black Cat, he cried (I think) because he realised how much more there was to the world, the possibilities and his life than he'd suspected. There's something about unconditional love (and a fish) from a small furry animal, isn't there? I don't think his brothers ate any of it, but it probably depends on how big the salmon was. I should probably have posted this link before ... more info than on MySpace ... Anne |
Subject: RE: Anne Lister -Thank you From: Mrrzy Date: 18 Dec 07 - 08:17 PM Tabster, have you read The Witch's Boy? Your "Cinders" reminds me of some of the stories you get in that book, including the wolves' side of Little Red Riding Hood, and the lament of Sleeping Beauty for her enchanted dreams... beautiful. I'd love to hear you sing those... (I promise not to be the swooning fan, I really do!) |
Subject: RE: Anne Lister -Thank you From: Anne Lister Date: 19 Dec 07 - 04:03 PM Mrrzy, I haven't read that particular book but oddly enough I do have a Red Riding Hood song (not especially from the wolf's point of view, but wondering about some pertinent issues)and a Sleeping Beauty song from the point of view of the 13th godmother. There's also a generalised song about the Disneyfication of fairy tales, and of course "How to Find True Love" on the album you have, which is based on the trad Scottish story of Molly Whuppie ...that's before you get me on to Greek myths and tales of King Arthur! I can see we'll just have to get together some time to swap stories and songs! Anne |
Subject: RE: Anne Lister -Thank you From: GUEST,keberoxu Date: 07 Apr 17 - 06:45 PM I would like to thank Anne Lister for her affectionate posts about the cats who have made their homes with her, on Mudcat cat threads. And I would like to ask: More, please about that song Summerlands? You mentioned it in one post. The public computer I am on, for some weird reason, blocks Anne Lister's website when I try to go there. |
Subject: RE: Anne Lister -Thank you From: Anne Lister Date: 08 Apr 17 - 12:02 PM I'm glad you like the posts about the cats. I'm in the throes of unpacking vast numbers of boxes, having just moved house, and I've just left Mylo in the last kitchen box as he didn't want to leave it. "Summerlands" is awaiting the next chance to be included in a new album. I started the thinking/recording process last summer and now need some time to go back into the studio and record a handful of new songs. The plan for the new album is to use some very old recordings (from when I was a lot younger) and some new ones. But "Summerlands" is about saying goodbye to a loved companion animal, and the only trouble is I find it hard to sing it without tears. As to the website - we had a bit of trouble with the hosting recently, so the difficulty on the public computer might be because of that. My husband has plans to entirely re-do the website, but that again has to wait until he can sort out his desk and computer in the new house (computer currently still boxed up). But thank you for the interest! Anne |
