Ronny - To Have And Have Not
Review by Muhammet Cihat Bürcü
To Have And Have Not is the debut album by Ronny, an English singer and actress. Released in 1983, the album features a blend of pop, jazz, and electronic music, with Ronny's sultry vocals providing a unique twist to each track.
The album opens with the upbeat and catchy "If You Want Me To Stay", which sets the tone for the rest of the album. Ronny's voice is strong and confident, and she effortlessly switches between styles and genres throughout the album.
Tracks like "To Have And Have Not" and "Love Comes Quickly" showcase Ronny's jazz influences, with smooth saxophone solos and sophisticated arrangements. Meanwhile, songs like "Tell Me" and "Johnny, Johnny" have a more pop-oriented sound, with catchy hooks and upbeat rhythms.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "Un Homme Ideal", a French-language cover of the classic jazz standard "Mack the Knife". Ronny's vocals are sultry and seductive, and the arrangement is both playful and sophisticated.

About Ronny
Ronny used to be a top French model. Ronny was brought up in the grim Northern industrial area of France and left home at 14 to go to Paris, there lying about her age and doing terrible jobs. Took dancing classes and jobs then stopped everything and started to write songs. Club entrepreneur Rusty Egan met Ronny in the Paris club Privelege and co-produced with Midge Ure her best release, Vangelis, Georg Kajanus and Peter Godwin also produced for her. Ronny, a masculine name, is the blitz girl who loved to dress up as a boy.
Also, Ronny did a duet with Steve Strange called "The Lady Is A Tramp". The single was never released.

In this song: backing vocals by Zaine Griff.
Venetian shadows dance across your face
the fan spins smoke around a dress of Spanish lace
thrown on the floor
like a lover you rejected
like possessions you had, possessions you lost,
possessions you stole, at double the cost
to have everything and throw it all away
to have someone's heart- but something's in the way
the fan spins smoke around a dress of Spanish lace
thrown on the floor
like a lover you rejected
like possessions you had, possessions you lost,
possessions you stole, at double the cost
to have everything and throw it all away
to have someone's heart- but something's in the way

I lost my single of this in the mid 80’s and have looked high and low for this on you tube…..only rembeered her name but spelt it wrongly n by chance came across this yesterday, made my day!
Any chance that this single to have and have not/blue will be available some day? ... for instance on Bandcamp? ... it is a shame that outstanding music such as this could not be available in any hi fi format ...
