A wonderful band (Valentyne Suite is one of my all-time favourites) and it's a great shame they can't continue due to Barbara Thomson's health problems.

Well, though that is maybe the main reason and even the catalyst, there are other contributory factors, as I touched on in my blog. Thanks for the nice comments, tho'... Valentyne Suite is surely the work that many fans would agree is their finest and most memorable piece.

That's a shame, really enjoyed them both times i saw them. Would have been nice to have caught them one last time.
