Juice, I think, was underrated in her day because her hits came about in the Urban Cowboy era. Her songs, in my opinion, were never of the Urban Cowboy type, however, closer in spirit to the classic California country-rock of the 70s. It’s a shame that songs like “Angel Of The Morning”, “Queen Of Hearts”, “The Sweetest Thing”, and “Love’s Been A Little Bit Hard On Me” aren’t played more often, because they were a breath of fresh air on the radio at that time.

Juice would sometimes perform some of her hits (such as “Break It To Me Gently”) with just a guitar for accompanimant, on shows such as NASHVILLE NOW. It was a treat to her her perform in that context and I’ve often wished she had released an album in that context . She is an excellent singer
