The great Kate McGarrigle passed away from cancer yesterday. One of my very favorite singer/songwriters. She will be missed.

Oh, man, been an admirer ever since I heard Kate and Anna McGarrigle on the Reprise label and that song.  A terrific album.  A desert island pick for me.  Heart Like a Wheel was penned by Anna.  Both she and her sister are great songwriters and played a variety of folk instruments.  Sad news.
