She's all over Mr.C' late 70s stuff. She was all the rage in the session singers back then.

I need to pull her debut again, remember this?

Why happened to Eleanor following the release of Connors' 1977 album Romantic Journey?

I love this cut! And Jean Carn on the background vocals just made it even better!

I've often wondered why Norman never cut an entire album with Eleanor? She had an incredible voice and Norman knew how to produce her. I have that "This Is Eleanor Mills" CD but it doesn't pack the same punch as her collabs with Norman.

I keep hoping someone will give Norman's albums the reissue treatment, especially "this is your life" music
