Peggy Lipton Ode Records (1968) For me she’ll always be “Julie” from the “Mod Squad” (which was on during my formative, and heavily TV influenced, pre-teen years). But she’s also been Mrs. Quincy Jones, Norma Jennings on “Twin Peaks” and is the mom of Rashida Jones’ (from “The Office”). This is the first of two LPs that she made. Each includes a composition by Laura Nyro: Stoney End (1968), and Lu (1970) and they both made the Billboard Charts. (As did many others with Nyro songs – Barbara Streisand, Three Dog Night, The Fifth Dimension, etc.). It’s not as bad as most of the “golden throats” recordings by TV stars. And the cover shot of Lipton, a former Ford model isn’t bad either.
