Remembering The Ally Days…

Pearl’s a Singer is such a sweet, heart-wrenching song about a woman who always wanted to be famous, but just ends up singing in a bar, dreaming of what could have been. This was in the first episode of Ally McBeal, and I have such a strong memory of showing up to the set for the first time and walking onto that stage to film.  How thrilling and how ironic, that I thought my fate could have ended up like Pearl, but here I was embarking upon a new, explosive adventure that would change my life forever.  

Enjoy!!

We recorded this song in Season 3 of Ally McBeal, and it features my pals, Sy Smith, Reneé Goldsberry, Vatrina King (A.K.A., The Ikettes!) and Carmen Carter!!  How did we hit those notes??!!  Ha!  This makes me want to do a soul/gospel review!  Also, Val McCallum on guitar, Davey Faragher on bass, Pete Thomas on drums and Neil Larson on piano.  I thought this might cheer you up in this crazy time.

Remembering The Ally Days… 

Over the years, people have asked me what my favorite times were while working on Ally McBeal.  As some of you know, I was the “behind the scenes” music producer of the show, and most of my work took place in the studio with my incredible band, for many, many hours, into the early mornings. Sometimes we’d start at 10:00 a.m. and work until 3:00 a.m. the next morning, but it was incredibly fun, exciting and gratifying.  Please listen to Blowin’ In The Wind, one of my favorite songs we recorded, and right after, we’ve included an “out-take”.  I sing the last word, then keep listening… this is how punchy the band and I got sometimes!  Some amazingly silly, fun memories to share with you!  More to come!   

Stay well!!

Remembering The Ally Days…

Here are two versions of the great song Mama Said.  The first is just me on piano and the great Val McCallum on acoustic guitar.  The second version features the amazing Jeff Young backing me up on vocals and Wurlitzer,  Andy Kammen on drums, Jim Hanson on bass and Val on electric guitar. 

Often when we’d record for the show, we’d do two versions… and sometimes both were used!!  

Stay safe and well… and keep wearing those masks!!  (Even though it’s annoying!)  

Love, Vonda

Remembering the Ally Days...

As some of you have noticed, when we were featured on Ally McBeal playing a song, usually you’d hear about 15 or 20 seconds of the song, but we always recorded the whole song, so it has been really fun to share the complete versions with you… we worked hard on them!  

I want to lift your spirits through music during these lonely, trying, extremely difficult times, so I hope this helps a little.  

Take good care, stay safe, and I’ll see you down the road somewhere… more to come!!
