she could be 78 but. . .
her whereabouts have been unknown since 1990, when, according to her sister, she was in Sacramento, California, apparently recovering from surgery.
The music journalist Mark Ellen wrote in Mojo magazine in 2000 that she was “last seen in 1987 hitchhiking across the Arizona Desert. Not even her family has heard from her since.” Fellow former Incredible String Band member Rose Simpson was quoted as saying: "There’s a possibility she may be dead.”

Scottish psychedelic folk group The Incredible String Band was riding a wave of popular and critical success in 1969. They were scheduled to perform on Friday evening with the other folk acts, but they refused to play in the rain and were rescheduled to play Saturday evening between Keef Hartley Band and Canned Heat.
