Mel turned up at St Albans FC (Breezy's club) last year (or was it the year before?), along with another name from the past - Chris Rohmann.

She was in fine form, and I had sort of hoped that Breezy would offer her a gig, but there's been no sign of it so far.

She doesn't do much in the way of gigs these days by all accounts, which is a pity, but concentrates on teaching singing and music therapy.

Her CD "From the Heart" with Ollie Blanchflower was out of production last time I looked, but I have a vague memory that it might be available through a German label. I will have a hunt round and see what I can find. Her version of "The Last Leviathan" on that CD is still definitive IMHO.

A great lady and a terrific singer and guitarist - not a bad songwriter either!
