I just heard on the news that singer Phoebe Snow died today in New Jersey from complications of a massive brain hemmorhage she suffered a year ago. Varying reports gave her age as either 58 or 60.

I remember her from years ago; "Poetry Man" was probably her best-known song.

Very sad. I hadn't heard of her in a long time until today's news, though I read she had planned to record a new album before the stroke incapacitated her.

RIP
