Phoebe Snow dies at 58
« on: May 01, 2011, 22:13 »
US folk and blues singer Phoebe Snow has died of complications from a stroke she suffered last year, aged 58.

The singer-songwriter, who was best known for her 1975 hit Poetry Man, had been in a coma since the stroke in January 2010, her manager said.

Snow largely dropped out of the public spotlight soon after her first album to care for her daughter who was born with a severe brain injury.

Who?  I've heard of Our 'Enery, Professor Richard Holmes and even Ted Lowe, but Phoebe Snow?

Because it was on the BBC, so I assumed it was just me who didn't know who she was.  ;D
