Sally Stevens

Thanks to Joe Zimmerman (and the AMA staff) for writing and publishing the On Any Sunday Songbird piece on Sally Stevens in the December 2022 issue of American Motorcyclist. Recently, two high school buds and I (class of ‘72), watched Dana Brown’s movie On Any Sunday: The Next Chapter. At the end, that iconic theme song played, and we all wondered who the vocalist was. We combed through the credits to no avail, but thanks to your article, we now know it was Sally Stevens! Although she wasn’t grounded in motorcycling, I love that she asked her brother for that ride to get her into the mindset. It sure turned out wonderful!

50 and winding our way through the spring runoff trying to make sign up and tech inspection, all while listening to the On Any Sunday soundtrack from a cassette we made just before our departure for the 20-hour road trip. Life did not get any better for a young racer about to see the biggest racing event in his life. So thank you for putting a face and introducing us to Sally Stevens after all of these years.
