The simply sublime Ellen Foley propelled her solo career with this majestic pop hit from 1979: 'We belong to the night'. At the time, I didn't know that it was Ellen's vocals that partnered Meat Loaf's on his 'Bat out of hell' opus the year prior. With talented producers Ian Hunter (Once bitten twice shy) and Mick Ronson (Bowie), Ellen's debut set 'Night out' was an acclaimed and successful first album; making the charts around the world including Australia where 'We belong to the night' made the Top 15 at the end of 1979. For some reason this powerful album opener was not issued as the first single in America; instead 'What's the matter baby' was, but only made #92 on the Billboard charts. I also recall a follow up 'Stupid girl' which received videoplay. Further solo LP's followed and a career on stage and screen; making Ellen Foley a major talent and presence in the entertainment world in the decades that followed. For those unacquainted with this amazing singer; enjoy this moment in time. For others I hope it brings back great memories.
