My first memory of RLJ was her first performandce on SNL, many yrs ago. I was just blown away.
Thank you, Rickie. I am so glad you just 'keep going though it's long past too far'.............
I had to take myself out of Venice, but nothing will ever take Venice out of me.
Rickie's music has meant the world to me. A most sublime night was spent listening to her music in total darkness. About eight of us had been out drinking and managed to stumble home, A friend John wa apparently sober enough to put her debut cd in the stereo. That album is amazing, we hung on every note. Kind of crystalized the night in everyones mind.
What a beautiful song. Thank you Rickie...
Rickie is like fine wine. She gets better with age. "Bonfires" brought me to tears.
Very nice song Ricky! Keep going!
: )
Rickie grew more and more beautiful the more she sang her song. Damn. She's good. Now I got a song called Bent Motorcycle she might wanna try.
Amen.
Okay, it's a cliche - but RLJ has the voice of an angel. A miracle in your studio.
