 First, when I went to the NY Times website this morning, I saw that Phoebe Snow had died.  Phoebe Snow had a fine, rich voice very like butter and maple syrup, and the local radio station actually has been playing her "San Francisco Bay Blues" even though it mostly doesn't sound quite like her.  (I'm pretty sure "Poetry Man" is on YouTube somewhere, but that will be a later edit.)

Then the CBC announced that Poly Styrene had died.   She'd just released a new album, too.  (Here's the link back to the article [personal profile] the_future_modernes wrote about her for this comm.  The "O Bondage Up Yours" video is something else now, though.)

([personal profile] the_future_modernes  left a comment on my memorial posting.  I think this has taken more than five minutes, though.)

Ack, first Ari Up, now Poly Styrene? :(

(I haven't heard of Phoebe Snow yet, but will check her out.)
