Stacy Earl
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Stacy Earl is a female dance/pop singer who had a string of Top 40 hits in 1992. Her singles "Love Me All Up", "Romeo & Juliet" (a duet with The Wild Pair), and "Slowly" all reached the Top 40 of Billboard's Hot 100 singles chart. She released her self-titled debut album, which featured all 3 singles, on RCA Records the same year. The album featured production work by Glen Ballard, Walter Afanasieff, Oliver Lieber (the producer responsible for Paula Abdul's hit single "Opposites Attract"), and Michael Sembello and among others. The remixes of "Love Me All Up" , produced by Dave Shaw and Winston Jones, were also popular in clubs. The remixes were released commercially on vinyl only. Promo CD pressings of the single also featured the remixes and included one additional mix which was not on the 12" single. Remixes for the vinyl single of "Romeo & Juliet" were produced by Oliver Lieber, who also produced the album version. "Slowly" was never remixed, but a shorter radio edit was created for the cassette single.
In 1993, Earl released a new song "Blood From A Stone" which was recorded for and featured in the movie "Untamed Heart" starring Christian Slater and Marisa Tomei. "Blood From A Stone" was produced by John "Jellybean" Benitez. Although the commercial soundtrack release did not feature the song, the song was released by RCA on cassette single (with the cover bearing the movie's official poster artwork). The cassette featured an additional previously unreleased Stacy Earl song called "The World Is Not A Stranger" on the B-side. A 1-track CD promo single of "Blood From A Stone" was shipped to radio outlets, but no CD incarnation of the song was ever released commercially.
In 2006, Stacy Earl played a cameo role in the independent film "Crazy" which starred Ali Larter (Final Destination)and Waylon Payne (Walk the Line). In one of the scenes, Earl performs the Hank Williams, Sr. classic "Honky Tonk Blues" on stage.
