I'll give 'er a shot anyway.

I am proud to say that Skeeter Davis is a relative of mine by marriage. She unfortunately passed away in 2004, but she was a cousin on my wife's side of the family. (Like Skeeter Davis, my wife is from Kentucky). "End Of The World" was probably her most famous song, but she was a great songwriter (her lyrics were very much ahead of their time - particularly for a female songwriter), and was nicely able to bridge country and popular music.

I had never realized that I had an Andy Mackay Connection before!

Wonderful photos, by the way - thanks for posting!

Cheers,
Alan
