Kate McGarrigle lost her battle with cancer on February 18, 2010, ending one of the more remarkable partnerships in contemporary music. Kate and her sister Anna were both gifted songwriters who created gentle but emotionally powerful melodies and lyrics that were witty, clever, pithy, and honest without losing their awe for life's mysteries. But just as importantly, the McGarrigle Sisters harmonized with a rare beauty that added new colors to any song they sang; their sad songs drew an extra tear through their voices, and the jokes gained a new twist in their telling. Producer Joe Boyd was an early champion of Kate & Anna McGarrigle's music and produced their first two albums in tandem with Greg Prestopino, and Boyd pays tribute to their early years of record making with Tell My Sister, a three-disc set that features remastered versions of 1975's Kate & Anna McGarrigle and 1977's Dancer with Bruised Knees, as well as a bonus disc of previously unreleased demos.
