Sandee Chan was commonly known as one of the biggest fan of Ringo in Taiwanese musical industry. Personally I think her pulled out the musical essence she extracted from SR materials quite nicely despite the melody, which IMO is the most essential charm of music. Her compositions are a little bit bland compared to Shiina's.
Yet, I regard Sandee's side project with Veegay(HK) and Cola King(TW, poet/illustrator), The Material Girls(拜金小姐) one of my favorite projects. Maybe the more distinct image of TMG gave Sandee and Veegay more dramatic stages for composition.
Saw her live in Hangzhou in May. The outdoor environment did not play her to the utmost, but her performance still stood out as an enjoyable piece.
