There’s an obit here from someone else who feels embraced by the music-making. Some links, as well. Sue Steward points to the autobiographical undertones of the songs the sisters wrote and the way women found their experiences reflected in them. In a quiet, slightly enigmatic way, the work is strongly feminist. Spoilt males crop up a lot, especially on the album ‘Dancer with Bruised Knees’. But the females are always complicit, the tone more wry than angry.
