    truly one of the most talented song/ writer of our times that sadly is not given the respect she deserves

    Agreed but there is no one more respected than her by serious music listeners. I know you mean compared to (I won't even mention her or any of the others names) Just went to one of her shows here at a local community college and thought why not the Sprint Center. We were ready to drive 175 miles to Salina until we checked her website and found out that she was doing this non-Ticketmaster show 5 minutes across town. We did seriously considering pulling a Rupert Pupkin and catching both shows.

    Such a cerebral artist. Like the Sherlock Holmes of musicians.
