Thanks, Brian.
I was listening to her on Frank Hennessey's "Celtic Heartbeat" on BBC Radio Wales - a Sunday night, and on iPlayer. Stuart Brown and Eiry Palfrey went to talk to Frank about the concert. She was wonderful - what a voice. Siws came to my wedding in 1988, in Bewdley, Worcs, by public transport - she wouldn't ever drive on principle, because she thought everyone should use public transport. She was a GREAT friend - I'm very lucky to have known her. She spent two Xmas/New Years with me here - one was her last, sadly. My neighbours still talk about her singing 13 years ago in my lounge... Ah me.
Keep in touch!
