Pooka?

[Gary Moore <gmoore@u.washington.edu>]

Did someone mention Pooka a while back?  I was just doing a body text 
search on the London Times articles in the americast.ltimes.feature 
newsgroup for "Kate Bush" and found an article from the 2 Aug 1994 
edition by Louise Grey, entitled, "Of Penny Whistles and Wonderment".  
The article is about the 30th Cambridge Folk Festival.

Anyway, the fourth paragraph says: "Ralph McTell played two sets, as did
Pooka, a talented two-girl band whose feverish songs are touched with a
Kate Bush-like presence. Imbued with the spirit of their age, Pooka sang
about safe sex, whooped a lot and insisted that they came from Mars."

Is Pooka any good?  The last sentence makes me apprehensive.

  Former Vice-President and current U.S. Ambassador to Japan Walter
  Mondale says that gun bans attract criminals.  He confirmed that
  a 20-member Japanese gang had fled America where it is "too
  dangerous because of the prevalence of guns in the homes" for the
  the "easy pickings" in gun-free Japan.
