Wow how did I miss this. What a HUGE loss to the world of music. Somebody so talented who sang so many songs for so many years... won't be replaced.

Beer! It's what's for dinner... Sennheiser guy since 1980. The plural of vinyl is vinyl. I don't listen to my gear, I listen to music with my gear. That doesn't mean I don't hear my gear because sometimes I do. If you make espresso, you're gonna get burned. Cables don't kill treble, EQ kills treble -- @gimmeheadroom. "Using some measurements to define audio equipment performance, is similar to using a tape measure to define how good looking someone is." -- @Jandu

She was absolutely iconic and is one of the few USA musicians whom we can honestly refer to as national treasures. Prayers to her and to her family.
