Subject: RE: Whereabouts of Folk Group Magenta From: PoppaGator Date: 28 Feb 08 - 01:52 PM Last year I saw the great young Irish group Fushia, another word for a shade of reddish-purple. When I saw this thread title, I mistakenly thought of that current group. Might "Fushia" have named themselves in honor of "Magenta" (of whom I've never heard before)? |
