Re: [Harp-L] Marlena Shaw, Spice of life - Who's the harp player?

[Bill <bill.eborn@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

That's great thank you gentlemen!

I feel like a bit of a dumbass for not having discovered her before.  I
was looking for vocal renditions of Mercy, Mercy Mercy on the spottify
streaming site and found Spice of Life through that - Spottify's still only
available in Europe I think - but her career is well represented there - her
version of Alone Together's on 'Out of Different Bags' is really nice - I
love that tune.

Thanks again

Bill
