:( I hadn't heard the sad news. It's quite a shock. I e-mail chatted with Ellen a few times and she's been very active on Facebook of late... always seemed full of life and opinions. She'd been driving a school bus for many years.

She was an amazing guitarist... a real ground breaker. I think I have most if not all of her albums except "Live In Gray Creek", which I've never been able to track down.

Thanks for the heads up Deutros.
