I somehow got a hold of Rosie´s email address quite a few years ago now and we corresponded a bit. She sent me a large poster of Rosie and originals and autographed it for me.

my first slow dance ever with Marie-Josée, the most beautiful love I ever had with the most beautiful teenager girl, a warm dark summer night with the grasshoper's singing in between the tunes.
