TAPER NOTES: From Wikipedia, quoting a noted music critic:
"Without self-dramatization— [(McCaslin] favors plain melodies and
commonplace imagery and her singing is gamely unhistrionic—this woman
explores Joni Mitchell's territory with equal intelligence, more charm,
and no drums."
McCaslin and Ringer were married, toured together, and made for great
harmonies. Excellent songwriters with a fondness for covers. A number
of albums are available.
