Pal has gotten hold of two Slow Children tracks from a single released on Jet Records back in 1979, before they signed with Ensign Records.

Pal is painting again!

While surrounded by the over-stimualtion of city life, Pal knew what Oscar Wilde meant when he said "The worst thing for a poet is a view." But once she and Jules recently moved back to a quieter setting in Virginia, Pal found herself becoming artistically prolific again, musically and graphically. It's been several years since she's done paintings in oil (not since she lived in Woodstock, actually), so she is very happy to share her first two new paintings here! Click on the thumbnails below to check them out.
