singers of the ’7os. The girl
who rode the “Snow Bird’s”
tail to fame and fortune is
once again singing and singing
as well as ever.
She was off for those eight
months — she calls it “my
sabbatical” — to attend to
some maternal duties. She
had a baby, and William
Stewart is now six months old.
“During those eight
months,” she says, “I didn’t
even think about music. I
didn’t listen to the radio. I
didn’t read the music trade
papers. I have no ideas about
what songs are popular or
what singers are hot.”
She just spent those months
in Toronto, having her baby
and seeing him through his
first few months of adjusting
to being alive.
Even though she’s resuming
her career, she’s not resum
ing it with the same intensity
she once conducted it. She
says that, from now on, her
activities will be limited.
“I’m going to curtail things
from now on,” she says. “I’m
not as ambitious as I used to
be. I’ll still make records and
play a few hotel rooms —
Dallas, San Francisco, Lake
Tahoe, Las Vegas. Maybe I’ll
play a few county fairs during
the summer. But I won’t do
any more one-nighters.”
She says that, before she

ANNE MURRAY: “I almost
hope I don’t have a big hit
record.”
took those eight months off,
she had been so busy, so fran
tic that she became nervous.
She says her big problem was
that she couldn’t say no to
offers, but now she has learn
ed how.
She admits there is always
the danger that, when she is
once again re-established, the
offers will again flock in and
she’ll be faced with the temp
tation to say yes. She thinks
she’ll be able to resist that
temptation. She wants to; she
says she only wants to be a
part-time singer from now on.
“I realize that if I get
another big hit record,” she
says, “the demands and offers
and temptations will once
more come my way.
“That’s why I almost hope I
don’t have a big hit record. I
know it’s awful to say that,
but it’s true. I want to pursue
my career within limits —
recording, TV, a few hotels. I
enjoy recording and I enjoy
TV, but I don’t particularly
enjoy personal appearances. I
do it because the money is
good and that’s important.”
She and her husband, Bill
Stewart, a free-lance TV
director and producer, still
live in Toronto. And that’s
where they plan to stay.
“I like it there,” she says,
“and I don’t particularly like
it here. Living in Hollywood is
like living in the middle of
Photoplay Magazine.”
So she only ventures out of
Toronto when she has to, for
professional reasons.
Otherwise, she prefers the life
there — she is an outdoors
girl, golfing, swimming, play
ing tennis, when the weather
permits.
Her first engagement, after
she returned to action, was at
the Fairmont Hotel in Dallas.
She says it was difficult get
ting back in the singing saddle
again.
“It’s amazing how much
you forget,” she says, “but
it’s like swimming — after a
few days, it all comes back to
you again. At first, in Dallas, I
was very frightened, but I got
over that quickly.”
It’s nice to have her back. In
this era of singers who can’t
sing, Anne Murray is one of
the pleasant exceptions.
