    Damn you Jolly! You're turning me into a fan!

    Here's Susanna earlier this year:

      Again, not bad for 62. Hell, not bad at any age. But did the looks overshadow the talent? While not the best voice in rock or pop, she is pretty distinctive. And I like her taste in decorating her home.😊

      When she went solo, the label put her as the opening act for Don Henley on The Age of Innocence Tour and released a solo album. Despite her looks, voice and some good production values, about the best it did was one Top Twenty (and that was because of heavy rotation on MTV)

      Link to video

      Again, she's got star power, but the solo career never really took off. Did music change that much in the 90's?

        John Mellencamp. Here's a guy who took back control of his image and music.

          LOL. I was thinking the same thing. That's pretty much our style as well.

          Yeah, it did. Didn't we have a thread about how much music has become less "complex" a while ago? Listen to the range of that song, it goes up and down what, an octave and a half? Not gonna hear that today.

            Gaga could do it, but a lot of the current female singers would fall on their autotune.

                Gaga is amazing. Terrific voice, lots and lots of power, fantastic range. Her rendition of the Star Spangled Banner is really memorable. I haven't seen much of her lately, is she still recording?

                  She's still out there, just not the flavor of the moment.

                      Gaga is now doing whatever she wants to. I see her moving in more of a crooner direction.

                        She has an album as of December. I gave a cursory listen this morning.
