Биография
Born in Texas, Laurie Styvers was a student at the American School in late 1960s London when she joined the legendary folk-pop outfit Justine, guesting on their eponymous LP and later embarking on a solo career after signing with Shel Talmy and Hugh Murphy’s Hush Productions. Produced by Murphy and arranged by Tom Parker and David Whitaker, recording sessions over the next two years revealed Styvers to be a gifted songsmith with a humble and captivating vocal presence. The sumptuous musical backgrounds only serve to heighten the attractive qualities of this young ingenue, and her debut single ‘Beat The Reaper’ received encouraging airplay on BBC Radio 1. Styvers commuted between Colorado and London while making her records, but the relative commercial failure of both albums hastened an exit from the music scene. Her later years saw her caring for animals, and Laurie died in 1998 a cult figure that had faded into obscurity. Gemini Girl: The Complete Hush Recordings is the exhaustive document of Laurie Styvers’ career that her music has so long demandedl with a full album’s worth of unreleased material, including demos, alternate versions and some superb unheard songs. The 48-page booklet comes with thorough notes by compilation producer Alec Palao that delve deep into the legend of Laurie, extensively illustrated with photos and memorabilia. The deluxe 2CD Gemini Girl is the last word on the intangible magic of this fascinating and mysterious artist.
