| Jacquey Maltby was very talented in those few things I saw her in, including Song of Singapore. I don’t know what happened to her in the last 25 years plus, but if she left the biz or scaled back her aspirations I’d hope it wasn’t because of articles like the one you referenced, complaining she was no Donna Murphy - she wasn’t, but how could she be? In any case, I’m quite certain that if they’d been able to have Murphy on the album they would have... another indication that unless my memory is completely wrong, for whatever reason, things between her and the rest of the company on Song of Singapore didn’t exactly have an ideal ending. |
