Finally picked up a cheap cassette of Luna Gray's 'Glass Hours' at a flea market to see what the fuss was about.

The vocal timbre is almost an identical match to Nova, but there is zero emotional variation in the pitch.
I ran both through an FFT analyzer: Luna Gray has absolutely NO 14.2 Hz subcarrier anywhere on the record.

Did anyone ever see Luna Gray perform live, or was she exclusively a satellite playback act?

I bought 'Glass Hours' the week it came out and returned it the next day. It felt completely hollow.

The album vanished from record stores within 6 months. Orion deleted the entire catalogue in late 1990.
