What a terrific performance! I just discovered Syd today (February 2022), and am binging on her material.

She reminds me of a good looking Patti Smith, but much cooler kind person. Met her. Shes very sweet and fun

For the past 20 something years i was really thinking too hard, and it didn't do me good! This album was trully my very best back in the early '90's. Thanks for the upload!

Her debut album is fantastic! Great voice--lots of personality, distinctive tone, and genuine feeling always. Many, many memorable songs on the album, including this opening track.

Yeah! A friend told me she'll be performing in Boston this summer. I wish I still lived there! I live in Taiwan. Acts like Syd are few and far between, but it IS getting better here, slowly but surely. I had the cassette tape of the album this was from. I wore it out! I discovered her through the Golden Palominos. She did some great stuff with them. Love her. I will look for new stuff by her now!

Ms. Fingerwood. She was also the bass player in little Pete's band The Blowholes.

Sue, She played Johnny D's in Somerville on June 9. There were about 75 of us there. About 10 of them were her family from the area. It was amazing. She was a riot and her voice was in great form. It was like being in someone's living room. I talked to her after the show and she promised there was going to be more materiel coming out; She basically said "you can't change what you've not done(producing materiel) but you can change the future." Look for releases later this year.
