Notes: I've combined two SV shows from more than ten years apart because they're both short and not well-circulated. These are both master sources as well. The Club Passim show comes from a WERS radio (Emerson College, Boston) recording of her performance. It's a nice show from early in her career and features the rare track "The Rent Song" which I don't think was ever officially recorded. Sound is slightly muddy, but nothing serious. Jumping ahead to 1996, SV played an in-store gig at Tower Records in the Village (RIP) to promote "Nine Objects of Desire." The sound and recording are crystal clear and the crowd noise very minimal. Enjoy!
