Judie Tzuke Stay With Me Till Dawn/ New Friends Again (The Rocket Record Company, 6079 675, 1979)
Judie is still going strong - still performing and still releasing albums, but this is the song she will be forever known for, therefore, she joins the ranks of one hit wonders.
Nothing takes away from the fact that it's a great song. She co-wrote it and sings it wonderfully. Somehow, it has that certain something that allows it to connect to a wider audience.
Let's call it 'vibe'. There's a real wistful feel to her delivery and that middle section with the strings lifts the song into the stratosphere.
She's done plenty of singles since but nothing has fired up the collective imagination like Stay With Me Till Dawn.
Hidden gem: The B side is so so. The money shot was the A side.
Music is the wine that fills the cup of silence - ROBERT FRIPP. Information is not knowledge; knowledge is not wisdom; wisdom is not truth; truth is not beauty; beauty is not love; love is not music; MUSIC IS THE BEST - FRANK ZAPPA. I think we're a little happier when we have a little music in our lives - STEVE JOBS. Music in the soul can be heard by the universe - LAO TZU. Rock and Roll is fire, man. FIRE. - DAVID BRIGGS. Music grips you, gets into your soul - GEORGE MARTIN
