Stabb Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 After long hiatus from the music biz, starting and raising a family, Yvonne is back and has new music out. How do I know? I'm her musical director and co-producer. It's a four song CD. With the proceeds we hope to record a full length CD. For those who might not have heard of her, Yvonne - Starred as Mary Magdalene in 'Jesus Christ Superstar' (Broadway and movie). Was a backup singer for Eric Clapton in the '70s. Had a #1 hit 'If I Can't Have You' from the 'Saturday Night Fever' album. Along the way released 6 albums. Her website - www.yvonneelliman.com Thank you for the opportunity to post this!

_jr_ Posted April 3, 2005 Report Share Posted April 3, 2005 Other than JCS, Chris, she's best know for a song called "If I Can't Have You" from the dico era. It's a great song, BTW. Give it a listen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete38890 Posted April 3, 2005 Report Share Posted April 3, 2005 Didn't Yvonne Elliman do those awesome backgrounds for Floyd? Or am I collecting interest on that acid account I opened in 1973? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stabb Posted April 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2005 Didn't Yvonne Elliman do those awesome backgrounds for Floyd? Or am I collecting interest on that acid account I opened in 1973? If you mean Pink Floyd - I've never heard her mention it. So I don't think so, but I'll ask. Or maybe you had good stuff? Aloha, Stabb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete38890 Posted April 3, 2005 Report Share Posted April 3, 2005 Might be morphing this and that... Your gal did "Superstar" and put her face in the Coke commercial, the "I'd like to teach the world to sing" garbage....but I guess she wasn't the voice cher on DSotM....

Aunt_Acid Posted April 4, 2005 Report Share Posted April 4, 2005 Cher never sang on DSoTM. The singers were Doris Troy, Barry St. John, Liza Strike, Lesley Duncan, and Clare Torry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stabb Posted April 10, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2005 I guess I don't have to ask Yvonne if she sang the Floyd stuff. What she did do was sing the lead beautifully in a live version of Blind Faith's 'Can't Find My Way Home' on the recently released reissue of Eric Clapton's 461 Ocean Blvd. (She was part of Eric's band then) Check it out...

Foxy Posted April 10, 2005 Report Share Posted April 10, 2005 I liked 'If I Can't Have You', but to be honest have never seen or heard her mentioned, other than that song... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
