You could be right on both accounts - in 1980 she joined the Irish band Clannad, the group that already featured her older brothers and sisters. She stayed with Clannad for two years.
Check out 'allmusic.com' if you want as much info on music as you get on photography at pure-silver. 

Cheers

I dont really know what this panodras box thing is,
without looking at it, I dont know what it could do
for me... but to avoid the wire problem I connect my
computer to a set of infrared headphones and then tune
into whatever I want to enjoy...

I second Richards comment about BBC; I used to listen
to VOA and the Deutsche Welle as well...

(before the internet I used a shortwave radio to get
"the rest of the story")

I tend to print in "binges" that can last about 18 or
more hours... I think my favorite music is a tape I
found(!) which someone had thrown out... I dont know
who it is but it has "CLANNAD" writen on the tape; Its
in Galic (?) ...I am starting to think it might be
someone named Enya (?) anyway it is beautiful and
pleasent to listen to. In a weird way, I think the
fact that it is sung (or is it sang?) in a language I
dont understand helps me to concentrate on my imagery.


Does this make any sense?

Anyway, I too used to use the FM transmitter technique
but the battery kept giving up before I was ready to
stop printing, so now I find using the IR headphones
works very well!

I just have to remember to disconnect when using IR
sensitive emulsion!

Actually, I think I kind of like the gurgle!

This Pandora thing is fantastic!

thanks for telling us about it.

I also use a little program called Radio Lover that
enables you to
record while you are listening to music on the
computer. I use it to
record American Routes, which I can then listen to
on my ipod or burn
to a disk to share. Now if I could just figure out
how to edit it...

I also listen to my ipod in the darkroom, but
because the wires bother
me, I plug it into one of those little clock radio
things that plays
your ipod through speakers.
