Nice things said about Love's ghost CD...
..."it all sounds SO good". BOB HARRIS. (BBC Radio 2)
"Very relaxing songs by Val Marshall ... .....vocals are like sequins of sparkling jewels.... ........just the right voice for taking you deep inside the music and evoking memories of the past... .......or for ’warming your heart’... or for putting everything else ’on hold’ while she sings... and you just listen...........and you can become hypnotized without even knowing it... as she takes you to distant places.... Like a musical siren, she subtly draws you into a rather pleasant form of mind travel... Yes... Very beautifully done. " - Magic Potion.(www.noisehead.com)

After you've finished here, you may like to hear this poem sung on myspace...
Poem 162 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): TEES TO TYNE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS - SUMMER 2001
Where traditions are not so rare; Sea, country and works scent the air; A multitude of monuments, Planted tubs and patterned pavements.
The longish pedestrian malls; The remnants of defensive walls; Historic buildings are a gauge Of the respect for heritage.
Wheat, rape and pines in the fields; Estuaries guarded by shields; Long sandy beaches and wide scenes; Romantic-ruin go-betweens.
Rivers in parts licked by trees, Or fringed by boat clubs, wharfs, gantries, And crossed by practical delights - Varied spans, forming pleasing sights.
Fine churches headed at Durham; Football kits ad infinitum; Kept castles - one for study; Masonry behind masonry.
And, with moulding-works out that way, It’s somewhere for a longer stay..?
Big Neil & myself would love to see you perform one night at the open Mic nights every Thursday at the newly refurbished Grafton Pub (Just off Newland Ave - street next to Sainsbury's!).
CHRIS HELME, DAISY B, TWO, THE TROUBADORS + MARBLED at The Little Num Num Club, Sat 3rd Oct 41 Monkgate, York. 7:30pm. £6 otd Should be a good night! Hope you can make it down! x
