Saturday Night Girl: Bonnie Hearne
Cassette 1995
Producer: John Egenes
Musicians: Bonnie Hearne (Piano,
Lead vocals), Diane Gibbs (Harmony vocals)
"This album is largely autobiographic. There are
songs of my childhood years spent with my birth family and my foster mother.
Also there are songs which describe my love for my native state of Texas
and my present home of New Mexico. And finally, there are songs of love
and life's little disappointments. The title song, "Saturday Night
Girl," stems from a dream I had. It is about the dancer in all of
us who longs to be fulfilled."
-- Bonnie Hearne, 1995
