From the Backseat - Fems of Feb. redux

Before I continue on with March madness, I have some left-over material from last month. 

The Fems of Feb. Redux

I ran out of days in February for all the womym artists that I wanted to feature. Also a friend of NSS was prompted by a February post to request other postings, so I'm going to finish up that before moving on. It'll be the perfect time for a little breather after the abundance of Dub. It'll give everyone a chance to get caught up.

I knew there were way more great woymn artists than I would have time for in February. I tried to trim it down to ones I felt I hadn't really covered too much (except I snuck in a few of my personal favorites like Carla B & Shara N). I had a trio more that I needed to include.

I've been a big fan of  Siobhan de Maré since her time in Mono. I've covered her time with Robin Guthrie in Violet Indiana quite extensively. I am going to post up Formica Blues from the Mono days & her latest as Swoone with Gary Bruce.

I've featured a great deal of Morcheeba (here & here) over the years but in my opinion, you can never get too much Skye (Shirley Klarisse Yonavive) Edwards. So I have a few solo releases from the fabulous Skye released during some of her stints away from the Morcheeba microphone.

The other request was for was the complete Gyllenskold, Geijerstam, & friends - Live at Bar Maldoror. I had previously posted up Side B on the Little Annie Anxiety megapost (Annie, Nurse with Wounds, & Diane Rogerson all uncredited). Here it is in its entirety...
