4. Again, you're welcome :)

I have some of her music on these various Middle Eastern compilations I have, and now need to find more of her work.

Plus, I read recently that she may not be singing any more due to a pain illness called "burning mouth syndrome" which is sad. Still, what has been recorded is worth having and hearing.

The main audience for Sheila’s 13 albums is in the USA. She has a big following in the ever-expanding New Age market. 5 of her albums have been Top 10 in Billboard’s World Music charts. But she is no longer able to record. In a recent press release for Real World she stated that "Singing is out of the question". In 2010 Sheila Chandra developed “Burnt Mouth Syndrome” (for which there is no known cause or cure) and now experiences long-lasting neurological pain triggered by speaking and singing. She is effectively mute, and communicates in person largely through handwritten notes and very basic sign language.

I was reading about this ailment, and there have been instances where people have had it just go away (remission?) after seven or eight years. I hope that happens for her.
