Hey Neal,

How about this: In your most professional voice, please ask Ms. Griffth why 
the heck she decided to ruin one of my favorite Richard Thompson songs - Wall 
of Death - by turning into a friggin' faux-march tune?  What the heck 
*inspired* her to sing it the way she does on the CD or worse, when she 
performs it live??  Geez...I hate when that happens!

stressfully yours,
Kate

  Any one out there a Nanci Griffith buff? I'm fixing to interview her this 
   week and need to do my homework. Most of the bio stuff found online 
tends 
 to 
   be outdated at this point. I thought I heard that she was retiring from 
 the 
   road soon. Is that on track?

There was a rumor that she was diagnosed with some form of cancer recently. 
That may be too personal, though.

Ask her why she sent that nasty letter to all the journalists who didn't like 
her last record.

In the 80s, I loved her stuff; then, with the exception of those records
where she covered all those classic folk songs with the best in the
business, her stuff got sort of precious, or over-ambitious, or I don't
know what. But I don't like her much now. I'm curious as to whether she
changed what she was doing around 1990, give or take, or whether I just
imagined the whole thing. She did write some wonderful road and relative
tunes, though, not unlike some of Lucinda's real personal songs. -- Terry
