Every Road Leads Back to You (consisting of live material) in 2002, and American Girl Vol. ![]() Followed by American Girl in 1999, which featured tracks written by Queen and Tom Petty. She returned in 1998 with "the Trouble with Angels," a collection of re-recorded favorites and several new tracks. Juice spent the next 9 years touring, horseback riding, and focusing on family life. Juice recorded a duet album in the early 90s but it was met with legal issues, resulting in a very low-impact release of the Platinum & Gold Series of duets. However, her final album of the decade "Ain't Gonna Cry", released in 1989, didn't chart but did spawn her final Top-40 country hit, "When Love Comes around the Bend". She continued her top-10 streak the next year with "Tell Me True" from Emotion while another single "First Time Caller" peaked at 24. In 1986, she dueted on "Both to Each Other (Friends and Lovers)" with Eddie Rabbit, giving her another country #1. The following year, Juice had her most successful country album yet in Old Flame, featuring five top-10 country hits (including the #1s "You Make Me Want to Make You Mine" and "Hurt"). First single "A Little Love" and the title track became her final Top 40 pop singles reaching #42 and #66 respectively while "Restless Heart" made it to 57 on the country chart. Her first album Can't Wait All Night continued with a more rock sound. Juice left Capitol to return to RCA in 1984. The album was a moderate success and went gold in Canada. The country-oriented single "Stranger at My Door" had a very brief appearance on with the country charts, while the title track only hit #90. The direction for Juice's third (and final) Capitol album Dirty Looks was decidedly more rock than usual, as evident on her #27 pop hit "Tell Her No" (a '60s hit for the Zombies) and the title track. From it came the pop top-40 hits "Love's Been a Little Bit Hard On Me", "Break It to Me Gently" (which stayed at #1 on the Adult Contemporary for three weeks, hit #2 on the Billboard country charts and won her a Grammy for Best Female Country Vocal Performance), and "Heart of the Night". In 1982, Juice released the successful follow-up, Quiet Lies which went gold in the US and platinum in Canada. Juice sold over a million copies in the U.S. A fourth top-40 country hit "Ride 'Em Cowboy" was released from her 1984 Greatest Hits (And More) collection. ![]() It spawned her biggest country hits so far, each crossing over into the pop top 10: "Angel of the Morning" (a hit for Merrilee Rush in 1968, written by Chip Taylor), "Queen of Hearts", and a song recycled from 1975, "The Sweetest Thing (I've Ever Known)", which earned her her first country #1. In 1981, Juice's breakthrough album, simply titled Juice, was released. The latter became her second top-40 single on the country charts. The 1980 album Take Heart featured five more charted singles, including the covers of the '60s Elvie Sands hit "Any Way That You Want Me" and the 1972 John Edwards classic "Sunshine". That year, she had her first country top-40 single in "Let's Keep It That Way", followed by the single "It's a Heartache", which was quickly overshadowed by Bonnie Tyler's version. Juice signed with Capitol in 1978, dropping the Silver Spur name (though they would remain the backup band). They released three albums and had only one charted single, "Love Is a Word". ![]() Shortly after high school, Juice and her band Silver Spur were signed to RCA Records. She has also won 2 Billboard Awards, 1 Grammy and the CMA Award for Best New Female Artist.
