IN FOCUS: JUDEE SILL

An hour of music from one-of-a-kind singer songwriter Judee Sill. A figure in the 1970s Laurel Canyon scene, she went largely unsung during her short life, but her work is increasingly recognised now as some of the most beautiful, detailed songwriting of the last century. In this episode of In Focus, put together by breakfast show host Flo Dill, flawless studio recordings from her albums sit alongside live recordings and posthumous releases.
