Johnstone, Jude
Coming Of Age
At nineteen, Jude Johnstone headed west to the studios and nightclubs of LA, where found herself collaborating with many of that citys top producers and musicians. After her marriage (to writer/producer Charles Duncan), Johnstone rededicated herself to song writing, getting tracks cut by such artists as Stevie Nicks, Bette Midler, Trisha Yearwood, and Johnny Cash (including the title cut of his Grammy-winning album, Unchained),as well as current recordings by Yearwood, Jennifer Warnes, and upcoming release by long-time idol Bonnie Raitt. This CD sees contributions by several of these artists, including Yearwood, Warnes, and Raitt, as well as old friends Jackson Browne and Valerie Carter, and the invaluable assistance of Yearwoods producer, Garth Fundis.
