Glad to have all 3. Now just wish I knew where they were. Not listened to Desertshore in a while. But do love Marbel INdex adn a lot of The End. Not the title track too much though. But Secret Side etc are really haunting.

The recently released '71 Peepl session is the best I've ever heard her voice

Secret side is on the '71 Peel session. It's also on the End. Is the Peel session just her plus harmonium?

Yes, it's just her and harmonium. Her singing is almost warm, and she sounds almost content, albeit with her own malcontent compositions. I feel like Peel caught her just as she was believing in herself as a songwriter, and more familiar with her creations than when she first committed them to tape.

Greetings all.
October 16, 2018 marked the 80th anniversary of Nico's birth. Does anyone know if any musical commemorations/tributes of this anniversary took place?
I think some tribute concerts took place for both the 70th and 75th anniversaries of Nico's birth, but I hadn't heard about any for the 80th anniversary.
