| Introduction | MB loves to sing but is not a soloist. She's a good dancer, an excellent speller, and an avid photographer. Most of her clothes are bought at the thrift shop. She had an old car and (had) an old dog. Now pet-free and using public transportation. Reads mostly memoirs and books about language, enjoys living alone, though if she had more money she'd hire a maid to clean up the place more often. MB has lived in Memphis and in New Jersey, but has been in St. Louis, Missouri since 1976. One of her friends told her she "eats like a Jersey Mule". |

You've broken up with your old band and are about to release your first solo album. Please write the liner notes:
MB's band was hitting the wall-of-sound. Now MB plays and sings all the parts with a spare, even sparse feeling; but sweet harmonies always prevail.
