Produceren var Michael Brook (ham med den s\u00e6rlige <em>Infinite Guitar<\/em>). Live-optagelser fra dengang afsl\u00f8rer en p\u00e6nt udseende dame med excentriske manerer gr\u00e6nsende til det s\u00f8syge. Se bare det gamle, tidstypiske klip ovenfor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Siden dengang har Mary Margaret O&#8217;Hara ladet h\u00f8re fra sig med sange til en film og med en jule-EP, men der er aldrig kommet et nyt album fra hende. Hun har ind imellem ogs\u00e5 v\u00e6ret at finde p\u00e5 scener rundt omkring p\u00e5 uventede tidspunkter. Engang i 1999 dukkede hun op hos R.E.M., hvor Michael Stipe roste hende til skyerne. Og hun sang baggrundsvokal hos Morrissey p\u00e5 &#8220;November Spawned A Monster&#8221;. (S\u00e5 er vi tilbage i det vante univers her hos os.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jeg har fundet senere live-optagelser med Mary Margaret O&#8217;Hara, og her er det desv\u00e6rre, som om det excentriske er kammet over og er kommet til at virke s\u00f8lle, her hvor hun har passeret de 70.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">H\u00f8r hellere denne gode koncertoptagelse med hende fra London fra 1989.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Mary Margaret O&amp;apos;Hara - Live at The Dominion Theatre, London, 1989\" width=\"474\" height=\"267\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/zK5DPYsmH4o?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n<div class=\"fcbkbttn_buttons_block\" id=\"fcbkbttn_middle\"><div class=\"fcbkbttn_like \"><fb:like href=\"http:\/\/www.jensunmack.dk\/wordpress-3\/mary-margaret-ohara\/\" action=\"like\" colorscheme=\"dark\" layout=\"standard\"  width=\"225px\" size=\"small\"><\/fb:like><\/div><div class=\"fb-share-button  \" data-href=\"http:\/\/www.jensunmack.dk\/wordpress-3\/mary-margaret-ohara\/\" data-type=\"button_count\" data-size=\"small\"><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ind imellem er der kunstnere, der kun udsender \u00e9t enkelt album, som man s\u00e5 til geng\u00e6ld husker for det gode.
