[mplpost] Liz Harvey-Foulds' post

[Rob Wakelin]

Regarding Liz's post, "Voice in the Wilderness" includes an exceptional song
called "Tiger Lily Road."  It alone is worth the price of the CD.  I was
unable to stop myself from hitting the "back" button on the CD player to
hear it again and again.

Another recording I recently discovered (at a pawnshop) is "Grace Under
Pressure" by Three Sheets to the Wind (Rebecca Campbell, Mary Burns,
Beverley Wolfe).  I'm sorry I missed this one when it came out in 1995.
Beautiful song selection, crisp clear production (John Switzer), and of
course, Rebecca's incredible voice.
