I hadn't either. Then I did recognize a couple of her songs when I looked her up on youtube.

She did an incredible version of "If you could read my mind"

I remember when I was younger, my dad would blast this and "If You Could Read My Mind", in the car. It seems like yesterday, but it was so long ago.
