recorded

while
>searching for something else.
Turk was a big fan of hers and she sang at Earthquake's while visiting =
in the states around 1980, as I recall. She sang a song of Turk's =
called "After." It had another earlier title but I don't recall it. =
It was a tune used in the musical "Storyville" and we named it "After" =
for the show. She was indeed a terific singer.
