  1. Enjoyed hearing it live...sat in the front row again..;o)
    What a great story teller the lady is.
    Didn't have any of her music but do now (well Zoe has)+ it was autographed.

  2. Not to be missed I would say.
    I think she will have some very interesting things to say about the music - with wisdom but also from the heart.

  3. Well - some artists can just get right to the heart of your emotions. It's a rare gift and a precious one. Sheila has that.
    I've read that folk would come out of her concerts emotionally drained - maybe shed a tear or two.
    I think we've seen exactly why this past week.

  4. Sheila comes across as a totally honest and sincere person - particularly where jazz is concerned and, I'm sure, in life too.
    I'd like to hear about the Vocal Masterclass with Zoe, Ruth and Lauren.

  5. I did, of course, mean Zoe, Ruth and Lindsey.
