In the May Record Collector, there's a review of Robert Godwin's
"Illustrated Collectors Guide". The reviewer (the editor, David
somebody) starts off by recalling that he once held a copy of The
Early Years in his own hands and remembering that all the tracks were
listed as being written by *someone* *else* - a woman as he recalls.
This is news to me. IED's discography doesn't mention this
possibility. It seems very unlikely that KaTe was singing other
peoples songs at that age - maybe she was using a pseudonym?


Btw, KaTe is down from 11 to 18 in this year's RC collectable artists poll.
Tori has entered at no. 300-and-something.
