 Chalav Udvash (Milk and Honey)
became suddenly very famous when they won the Eurovision in 1979. They had a few more hits
in Israel, although they did try to have a career in Europe (with no success). Anyway, a
little more than a year later, Gali Atari decided to return to
her solo career and left the group...which found itself without a singer. Finally, Lea
Lupatin, from the former Chokolad Minta Mastik
stepped in and replaced Gali Atari. Unfortunately, Lea Lupatin is not Gali Atari (and
personally I don't think that she has an ounce of Gali's talent, but that's my personal
opinion) and the group's popularity collapsed. Anyway, Lea Lupatin left them too a few
years later, and she started herself a solo career (she made three full albums, including
a collaboration with Oriental style singer Ofer Levi, but none has left unforgettable
memories). The group decided then to go on solo too and did a few gigs here and
there. Chalav Udvash's destiny is unfortunate because I think that they had a lot of
talent by themselves, and even more with Gali Atari's personal touch. Well, c'est la vie! |
