ISHTAR THE MOVIE.COM: What exactly was your involvement with any Ishtar recordings?
Ishtar, movie, film, VHS, DVD, Laurence, Juber
LAURENCE JUBER: I played on the songs that Paul Williams wrote & recorded - the 'Uber' Ishtar album. I think the intention was to actually make & release the album with Lyle & Chuck singing. It's likely that one or two of our tracks ended up in the movie.
