I discovered Jane in 1986, when a friend, who was in massage school, played The Speckless Sky while giving me a massage. I was living in Chicago. I was intrigued immediately. I once told her that my friend played it while giving me a massage and she said that she found that an interesting choice of music during a massage. I first saw her live the following year and have seen her many times since. I lived in San Francisco for twenty years and she played there often. In 2006 my husband and I bought her harp when she put it up for auction. She brought it to us and spent the afternoon at our house. It was a great day and she was lovely. The Walking has always been my favorite of her records but I love them all. A few years ago she came out with a live recording that I loved. I am excited that she is working on a new record and am hoping it is full of songs we've never heard. I am also hoping she will release it in hard form, on cd or vinyl. Sorry if you guys got a message similar to this one a couple hours ago. I wrote one and thought I sent it but don't see it anywhere so I wrote this.
