great voice ! great tracks! for her second solo album marilyn made the perfect blend between pop music and westcoast !
A great music family - Eric Martin and Marilyn Martin. Never heard such voices a second time.
Marilyn Martin, best known for "Separate Lives," a 1985 duet with Phil Collins for the movie "White Nights", released her debut album for Atlantic Records in January 1986, but commercially, Martin's solo career didn't go nearly as far as it should have. In 1988, Atlantic released Martin's 2nd album "This Is Serious", which is musically very good one but didn't sell well as predicted. Thus she was dropped by the label unfortunately. The singer never signed with another label and never recorded a 3rd album, although she provided some background vocals for various artists in the '90s. This album is known for a song called "Possessive Love" written and produced by Madonna and Patrick Leonard which was released as a single in 1989. The original demo remains one of many Unreleased Madonna Songs. In September of 2005, Wounded Bird Records reissued Martin's self-titled 1986 debut album and now her 2nd "This is Serious" is also reissued by the label.
