[QUOTE="Daniel Avery, post: 238984, member: 27"] Gritting my teeth here..... Credit for the use of the character "themes" (songs) and the judicious use of modern (for the time) music to set the moods of the scenes can be given to [/chokes] Jill Farren Phelps. Being a music supervisor (or some such title) was her method of inserting herself into the soap business. And[I] I guess[/I] she did an okay job. :re: I'm pretty sure she was, though IMDB says she was only there in 1983-1984. I mainly remember this because I was a fan of Debbie Allen and knew her sister was on OLTL...then her sister ended up becoming just as famous thanks to the[I] Cosby Show[/I]. Steering back to [I]Santa Barbara[/I].....Harley Jane Kozak had come to SB after leaving timeslot-competitor [I]Guiding Light, [/I]having been[I] [/I]part of one of the weirdest plots GL ever put together. It wasn't Kozak's fault, of course, but the storyline (involving a supposedly haunted house, an evil real estate agent and a decades-old secret about the murder of Kozak's character's mother decades earlier) tested the patience of even the staunchest GL fan. The fact that she managed to escape GL with her career intact was a feat in itself, but going to SB and creating an equally memorable character says a lot about her talent. And what can we say that hasn't already been said about how she leaves SB? [ATTACH type="full" width="231px"]22891[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
