Default Good Bye Poly
To say I'm shocked is an understatement. Poly, Known as a Woman Pioneer in the Brit Punk Rock scene. Knew she was with Hare Krishnas but not that she was battling breast and spine cancer!

Not sure how to feel knowing she suffered greatly, enduring this terrible disease. Should I be happy for her? I just know My Heart bleeds...Thank You BigSwede for letting this be known.

Songs I cared about...

X-Ray Spex - Identity 1977

YouTube - X-RAY SPEX - Identity

This next one from Her second solo album, Translucence 1980 before joinng Hare Krishna.

Poly Styrene - Dreaming 1980

YouTube - Poly Styrene - Dreaming

And Poly's 3rd and final album - Generation Indigo, released last month; an interview...
