We never heard of tape. Everything was live, live, live.
So many have been growing with us from the very beginning of our career. Others are brand new to us.
I felt we really couldn't be separated that much. I'd had a baby, and I was traveling and working alone while he was in the Army. It was very difficult-the phone calls and all of that. I really was very depressed.
I learned my phrasing from Frank. I loved him so much.

Steve has the most unbelievable range for a man that I've ever heard.
There was one year that I was on the road.
We were at the Schubert Theater for two years. And we were the first act.
