This is a hostel for homeless and disadvantaged people in Canberra, Australia. She may still be alive as of December 2015, in that I was able to find on TROVE (Australian Newspaper archives) a positive product review of a powder sold at a site called The Krishna Store. The powder is for Hindu deity worship ceremonies, I believe, as it is described as such, and within this review, by someone named Kerrilee Male, is religious language, "Hare Krishna" and so on. I have not yet updated Gerry, but he may be interested to know that she fell on hard times. She had no family left to celebrate Christmas with, as the caption beneath the 1992 photograph of her and another resident of the hostel suggests. The two are sitting at a table with food prepared for the hostel by the Canberra Hyatt House. The photo is from the Canberra Times, 12/26/92.

Australian bassist Trevor Lucas and British drummer Gerry Conway would associate with Fairport Convention in the future. Norweigan guitarist Georg Hultgreen(Hultgren/Kajanus) composed most of the songs, along with Canadian lead singer, guitarist and songwriter Michael Rosen. Kerrilee Male, from Australia, rounded out the lineup as the group's second lead singer. The group was very often compared to Fairport Convention for their sound AND west-coast California bands such as the Mamas & the Papas for the vocal harmonies. Fairport, however had more of a rock sound, and Eclection possessed four talented singers (all but Conway sang), all of whom were far more dramatic and emotional in their delivery.<br /><br />The music, while often melancholy in tone, is striking nonetheless. The band often mixed electric and acoustic instruments together, while at the same time several songs also feature orchestration by Phil Dennys. This gives the material an almost classical feel, and definitely highlights the material rather than burying the basic folk-rock sound. <br /><br />Group left behind only one large disc, "Eclection", recorded yet Kerilee Male, produced by Ossie Byrne, collaborator of The Bee Gees and released in June 1968 by Elektra. Album, which was accompanied by two singles ''Nevertheless''/ ''Mark Time'' and '' Another Time Another Place''/ ''Betty Brown'',been a captivating work of folk-rock originates from the tradition of different nations (eg, ''Nevertheless'', ''In Her Mind'', ''Violet Dew'', ''Morning Of Yesterday'', ''Confusion'', ''Will Tomorrow Be The Same'') Sorry,disappeared on the market. The songs are aided by strings was in the background, which to some may seem a bit old-fashioned, but this music is just such, no other charm ... In the song "In The Early Days" sung named Trevor Lucas, later to become a musician Fairport Convention and Fotheringay, privately husband Sandy Denny. Beautifully helps him a trumpet. <br /><br />Formation, Henderson already in place Male, returned to the studio to record two more singles: ''Please'' (on page B old song: ''Saint George And The Dragon'') and ''Please Mark II'' (on page B old song: ''In The Early Days''). But they did not gain popularity. Discouraged musicians undertook the decision to terminate Eclection. Rosen came later to Mogul Thrash, Hultgren as George Kajanus success of Sailor and Palmer became involved with the Family. Lucas and Conway continued activities exercised in Fotheringay and Fairport Convention.<br /><br />@Thx Marios :)adamus67https://www.blogger.com/profile/07035959023698485029noreply@blogger.com
