Playlist:-

    Kiwi Kath Tait introduces Penelope and Penelope begins with Shoe
      (Shoe, Archive: Demos, Out-takes and One Offs)
    Stonking track that ends with the kind of digeridoo playing to make
Rolf Harris tremble.
      (Old Man in the Rocks, Homemade Wine)


    Penelope's impressions of London including an hilarious aside about one
of the best songs ever written about the capital . . .
      (:Lost in London, Justify Your Longings To The Doctor)

    Two Kiwi Kath Tait songs sung by Penelope, the poignant Poor Dim Sally
and the fiery Steel Hearted Annie. (Poor Dim Sally, Steel Hearted Annie from
Archive: Demos, Out-takes and One Offs)

      A great song about Australia, written by Fred Small, an American.
Penelope recounts the tale of meeting Fred and being inspired by his
song.(Guinnevere and the Fire from Justify Your Longings To The Doctor)


    A powerful song written for Claire, a park ranger who lost her life
fighting a forest fire. (Bush Bloom from Archive: Demos, Out-takes and One
Offs)

    Penelope closes with Already Begun which I first heard her perform with
an undiminished passion at the Cambridge Folk Festival (left)



      (Al;ready Begun from Archive: Demos, Out-takes and One Offs)
