Anyone know anything about Eleanor McEvoy?

I picked up her latest LP at CES based on a review in HiFi+. What a great LP! I just got a CD called "Snapshot (Ithink it's a best of) from an E-bay auction. This is just as good, other than the fact the it's CD rather than LP. Does anyone familiar with her material have a suggestion of what I should get next???

I have her album YOLA on SACD, absolutely brilliant!

Maybe, audiophool approved, but music lover approved as well.

Beautiful piano (authoritative), wonderful voice (enveloping), and tremendous low end grunt (anyone with a subwoofer will know what I mean).

Probably her best album.

I picked up her self titled CD in '93 or '94 & it's good to hear the word is getting out about her.

I had her first recording for years and didnt think much of it. I just got YOLA having read this post. I dont how it compares with other of her efforts, but I do like it considerably better than what I had. A good recording- low key, but as noticed here she does have an authorative voice and it gets much more its due in this program. The first recording I had of her work seemed much more produced.
