Wow!  March is turning out to be a great month for fans of progressive and  
alternative female artists--I've listened to Tori's, Sarah's, and Tanita's  
new stuff and think it is all fantastic.  And there is more to come:  my  
local record store says the Indigo Girls are releasing a new album on  
March 31st.  Can anybody verify this?  The same record store gave that  
date as the release date for Tanita Tikarum's new disc.  Evidently, it has  
already been released in Canada since I picked up a copy last weekend  
during a visit up there.  Has it been released in the US yet?   I haven't  
seen any discussion of the disc here on love-hounds/r.m.g.  If anybody is  
interested I would be glad to provide any info about the album or even a  
review.


About Tori Amos:  Could somebody provide a brief biography on this artist.   
I've heard she is American but went to England to get musical recognition.   
Is this true?  When I asked a record store employee about any other music  
she has released he said that she did some heavy metal stuff with a band a  
long time ago.  I find this really hard to believe.  Any info about her  
would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
