@MaryBurnsSinger Thanks for that update, Mary. Sorry to be so long in acknowledging this.
To all members....be sure to check out Mary's new Channel/page and also the link there to her personal website: marysmightymall - where you can read her intriguing biography. Having had many ups and downs, I now understand why Mary's recording career never really took off the way it had been meant to. But, Mary has perservered in her life and is doing fine now.
I was very priveledged to have Russ and Mary perform at the Red Onion and the Garage Lounge when I managed them when I lived in St. Louis. I was relating to some freinds here in Louisiana the story of the day we went to Marion State prison to entertain the prisoners. What a great job they did. Two woderful people and great entertainers
Hi Mary my husband helped me get to your site, now all I need is your schedule. Thanks for bringing wonderful memories back to mom...see you soon... Kim and Judy from Caesars....hope you liked the t-shirt...take care.
OMG - I am so excited! I will be there with bells on! I'm hoping to bring my friend as well - it depends on his schedule - but we are meeting in a few minutes so I am sooooo excited to tell him! Thanks so much Mary - I am so happy to know you are still singing - what a talent you have! I'll be sure to introduce myself when I see you! Marsha
I would love to know where/when you are performing, Mary! My friend and I often talk about wanting to see you perform (again for me) and he has never seen you, but loves the California Radio album I bought for him! Please advise!
Thanks again for the comments: I am performing at THE GALAXY MAIN STREET LOUNGE & RESTAURANT in Alhambra Illinois {25 miles from Alton} Saturday June 5, 2010 and again June 19, 2010. Hours: 7pm to 11pm.
IMPORTANT UPDATE - see the sidebar/info bar from message I received directly from Mary on 5/17/2010 (it won't fit in this reply section - scroll all the way down in the sidebar to the end and you'll see it)
I don't really know! I once saw a teen with a shirt that had a picture of the album cover. I said, "Mary Burns! I love her!" the girl said it was her mom. It was one of those passing shoulda coulda moments of life. I've never been able to find anything locally about her since. Her brother Russ Bono now runs a children's music company. Nothing on her I'm afraid. Thanks again!
Thanks for getting back to me. So many singers like her out there, who made a bit of a mark, then just disappeared and no one knows what became of them. Hopefully, she's still with us & someone will let her know she's being appreciated on You Tube.
Did Mary simply retire? It's almost impossible to find anything on the internet about her.
I bought this used LP because I was intrigued by the song selection, but had never even heard of her. I found the entire album to be wonderful & glad to share it here on YouTube.
Mary was part of the brother sister act 'Burns & Bono'. They played at the St. Louis Playboy Club in the mid 70's. They went to Vegas and Russ returned to the STL area, while she stayed out west and tried to make her mark. She was last seen by this writer about 10 years ago playing a dive bar in the north STL Co area - her talent still shown through the haze she was creating for herself. It is sad to see such a talent wasted.
@maa1759 Thanks so much for adding to the updates of the history of Mary. Not sure what you meant exactly by the "haze" but can only guess she has some personal issues/demons to deal with and I wish her the best. Yes, she certainly had the talent and it would make for a good story on something similar to those "Unsung" segments shown on TV One.
Thank you for the comment, Although I myself are not quite sure what you meant by it. I am alive and kicking, still performing, still writing, and still recording. And as long as people use the talent they are blessed with, it is never a waste.
