I never heard of Eleanor McEvoy before, but thats what I love about radio in general and RP especially...  Just gave this a 9.  Need to hear more from her...

I've been following her since hearing her on the Woman's Heart CD and tour back in the '90s.  She's developed really well since

I've been hearing this off and on since my RP day 1 (or maybe 2 or 3) and never commented how much I've grown to like it over the years. Quite in contrast to some others that have gone the other way for me.

Interestingly, there is no Mae Moore in the RP catalogue.

I was very surprised to click on the album to find out this is 13 years old. Wow. It's timeless.

This is a favourite RP play, I was very disappointed last month at being unable to make it down the road to Eleanor's gig at the Real Music Club and hear what she's playing now.

Is Mae Moore known at all outside Canada -- and even here anymore? Her older work is excellent, especially the album Dragonfly.


Oh, gosh, Dragonfly is one of my favorite albums. I would hate to think that May Moore has vanished here in the States.

I like McEvoy's voice and writing. I used this very song on a mix CD for a friend's wedding reception and it got a lot of compliments.

Something about the instrumental combinations works for me -- the wah guitar backing up the blazing trumpet solo, with the good ol' Hammond back there somewhere, too. Surely not the first time this combination has happened on record, but this is a neat example of making it work.

Right about the combination. I had to check the playlist because I couldn't believe this wasn't Mae Moore. Vocally, lyrically, the music as described above, all sounds like something Moore might have done a little over ten years ago. Not sure how into it I am now but I'm willing to hear this track some more.

Reminds me of Bell, Book and Candle...mostly because of the lead singer.

Song is enjoyable, another RP discovery.

Bill's programming does show a little bit of repetition but in this case it's entirely welcome - the LZ Thank You segues nicely into this from Eleanor McEvoy.

I guess it's impossible not to repeat some back to back selections esp when he's programming so carefully and I do enjoy it so.
