Subject: RE: Anne Lister's Icarus, order tape/CD?
Barbara,

I have enjoyed the many blessings you have posted to this forum. In answer to your request, I went to www.ladyslipper.org which is touted as having the world's largest catagol for women's music. Sure enough, Anne Lister was in the catalog, and this is the description of the tape/CD I think you may be looking for:

Anne Lister - A Flame in Avalon We have been hearing about this British singer/songwriter for many years now (she wrote the beautiful song Demeter's Daughter covered by Grace Griffith), so we are pleased to be able to offer you this 1995 recording. Her songs stem from myths and legends and have their roots in traditional Celtic story telling. With "massed choir" harmonies by Mary McLauglin (and on some songs by herself), the simple yet moving songs are filled out by her acoustic guitar, harp, whistle, pipes drone, Scottish small pipes, bouzouki and mando cello. Highlights are The Goddess and the Sea, a retelling of the legend of Icarus, the gateway to the land of Faerie Hawthorn, and the faithful search in the title track. Cassette: 9.98...CD: 14.98

Blessings back at ya!!
