When she came to Louisville back in the mid/late 1970's...memories get tricky that long ago...I seem to remember that she announced that she'd be going off the road to care for her then new born daughter.
Her potentially wonderful performance was spoiled for me by the incredibly LOUD VOLUME of the overall concert.
I went out to the lobby to listen...she was really remarkable as a vocalist. I wish her sound man hadn't been deaf.
A month later Chuck Mangione came to Louisville Palace--I got tickets LATE--they were up front in front of a 'stack', and I thought 'here we go again'. But NO, the sound was virtually acoustic--the sound man only used the stack for a tiny bit of amplification.
RIP Phoebe...you were unique AND a good mom.
Good listening.
