Lisa,
I've been enjoying Beth Custer's playing with Trance Mission. I'd heard
that she had released a cd of her own but I lost the blurb. Anyway, now
I know the title, but I still can't find it. CDnow and Amazon were no
help, even though they have the TM cds. So... maybe you could give me
the label & number. (and address?)
Also what is "Clarinet Monster" (a group, a project?) And is there a
recording? thx,
b.
