Every Moment Has A Song

THE MUSE: Janet “Planet” Rigsbee

THE BACKSTORY: Their first meeting, she said, was “alchemical whammo.” Rigsbee inspired not just “Crazy Love” (“I can hear her heartbeat for a thousand miles”) but also “Tupelo Honey” (that’s her on the album cover). The couple split in 1973.

UPDATE: Morrison’s ex is a songwriter living in California. Their daughter Shana, born just after the release of “Moondance,” has recorded five albums of her own and often shares the stage with her father.
