I got a CD of hers about 20 years ago because it was great music and arrangements. Didn't know (or care) what she looked like

Same for me. Came to live here in 97, and heard a lovely song being played everywhere in Ubon, and bought the CD.

She is  from Ubon province, and I have been an admirer ever since.

Her big hit 15 odd years ago. When everyone was getting mobile phones and suddenly all the Issan and other Thai migrant workers working in Bangkok and the Eastern Seaboard could get in touch with each other easily.

Who here remembers going to a public phone box with a yellow card, costing 500 baht, an arm and a leg at the time, and trying to phone abroad through the deafening traffic noise?
