hello all.. ..Happy Birthday MAG....wish you all could come to Sunnycamp..some fantastic people coming..including some of the best women singers in the Northwest (just my opinion)...and the men are not shabby either...my bias is I don't read old threads...reminds me of reading transcripts of old conversations...so I shall begin anew...heard Janet Russell and her partner??? Kidd??? singing Danty Davy today..it was great...my favorite women singers are from the Northwest U.S...Jill King and Sue Postans of British Columbia..Mary Benson who is on the Mudcat at times...all the ladies in Broadside/St. Elmo's...and I absolutely would love to hear recent versions of Anne Sands and Anne O'Byrne (or is it Byrne..) of Ireland...I heard Anne when she was a teenager singing with the Sands Family and she was magnificent then...I got to sing once at a party with Maura O'Connell..boy is she great....she came in from the back when Cathy Nordhaus and I were singing something..she sounded like an angel. I do like pretty voices, men and women...it's shallow I know...still love the Lennon Sisters...
