Great profile! During our senior year at Temple High School in 1971, Liza played piano accompaniment for my trombone solo at U.I.L. competition. Part of her excellence was her willingness to perform a thankless task to help a classmate. Her 2019 memoir about circumnavigating the globe with Alan is a joy to read. https://www.amazon.com/Voyage-Heart-Song-Liza-Farrow-Gillespie/dp/1543957412
I would like to thank you for writing such a great article on my Aunt Liza. She was a mentor to me. I’m forever grateful for her voice and wisdom. I truly enjoyed learning more about her and just wanted to say thank you.
I still have the Starcrost album and I still cherish my memories of seeing them several times in Austin during the mid-Seventies. Sad to learn that Liza has passed away. She had a beautiful voice that really stood out, even in the midst of that great horn band. R.I.P.

Thanks for the book title. I meant to put it in the article and now I will.
