| When
the group Bangles separated, Susanna already had a contract with
Columbia Records to make a LP. Susanna looked for David Kahne that
had taken the first steps of the group. She began to record at the
beginning of 1990. |
The
result was "When You Are a Boy". Initially the LP should
come out in summer of 1990, but due to the launching of Greatest
Hits of Bangles, she was delayed to 1991. The album was placed the
number 83 in the American Billboard and the song "My Side of
The Bed" in the number 30.
The second single "Unconditional Love" of Cindy Lauper
reached the number 65 in the United Kingdom. |
| Susanna
saw as this first album was not what she wanted besides too commercial.
For it, she recorded her second album following her husband's recommendations
in 1993. This album was a guitar recording. But Columbia Records
didn't agree with the new musical address of Susanna and she didn't
want to take out the LP to the light, and she even tried that Susanna
will record again |
| In
1994, Susanna decided to break up definitively with Stiffel-Philips
and she signed with Gold Mountain Entertainment and soon after she
signed with London Records, subsidiary of Polygram. Susanna was
able to be taken of Columbia all the albums that had made previously
without resistance (usually, the artists should pay to get the rights). |
The
new album called "Susanna Hoffs" came out in 1996. This
new LP was full with feelings and the songs demonstrated it. "Weak
with Love" that spoke of their sensations on John Lennon's
murder or "Eyes of a Baby", on their son's birth.
The first single "All I Want" arrived to the number 32
in the United Kingdom and at the 77 in United States. The song was
one of the Top 5 more played in the radios. |
| But
Susanna didn't stop and she appeared as guest in the movie "Austin
Powers" and she sang one of the songs "The Look Of Love". |
In
1998 Susanna she had her second son and problems to record her new
LP.
For then, Susanna and Debbi had begun to work meetings again. 1999
would be the year in that Bangles join again. |
