Julia

[BombaySapphire3]

Recently this song was mentioned on the Nicksfix "Ask the backround singer''in a question about demos that had been obtained by fans as a song that was very special to Stevie.I know the song was written by Stevie in the late 70s after she had seen the great 1977 film "Julia' starring Jane Fonda and with an incredible, luminous performance by Vanessa Redgrave as Julia.Stevie saw this relationship as a paralell to the long friendship of Robin Anderson and herself ,and reference to the film and it's characters appear in other songs such as "Rock a Little' and "Battle of the Dragon '.It was mentioned that the song was never officially released because Stevie felt it had never been done correctly.It seems that given the right production this song could be another "Sara'It just makes me wonder how something like this has been on the shelf for so long while much more mediocre and pedestrian material has been released.I am praying that if Stevie does another album that Julia ,an epic and masterpiece IMO will get her due.
