A couple last-minute additions to the KaTe tribute album:

Alex Chilton -- I'm Still Waiting  (reportedly turned into a lounge song)

The Residents -- The Dreaming (one minute long)

And here are some selections from KaTe's Kover album, Time Has Told Me:

	Time Has Told Me (Nick Drake)
(She could just as easily be typecast for just about every other Nick
Drake song.  "Northern Sky", "Rider on the Wheel", and "Chime of a
City Clock" spring to mind)

	Inside (Ian Anderson)

	Islands (King Crimson)

	Sunday Morning / Jesus (Lou Reed)

	Blue Moon (Alex Chilton)
	
	Love Lies (Captain Beefheart)

	Child's Christmas In Wales (John Cale)
("Chinese Envoy" would be nice, too)

	Pissing in a River (Patti Smith)
(a real dramatic song)

	The Belldog (Eno)
(a science fiction story.  There are some other great Eno songs, too)
	
	Dirge, Shooting Star (Bob Dylan)
(The first is a chance to get her hands really dirty, but somehow drag
a happy ending out of it.  Sort of an extreme "Not This Time".  Shooting
Star is an upbeat but contemplative song)

	Two Left Feet (Richard Thomspon)
(A fun song.  )

	The Stranger Song (Leonard Cohen)
(or "Bird on a Wire", or...)

	Set the Controls For the Heart of the Sun (Pink Floyd)
(this would go well with "Rocket Man".  whispered vocals, digeridu)
segueing into
	Twisted (Psychic TV)
(where KaTe gets a chance to really hiss!)

Plus any of a number of songs by the Beatles, Paul Simon, maybe an Elvis
Costello (or Presley) tune...
