header (continued from p.30)

11-67     Gary Lewis & Playboys-Has She Got the Nicest Eyes/Happiness (Liberty 5601) (Arr.)
10-67     Zal Yanovsky-As Long As You're (Buddah 12) (Prod./Arr.)
6-67     Turtles-She'd Rather Be With Me (White Whale 249)(Arr. horns)
8-67     Petula Clark-Cat in the Window/ Fancy Dancin' Man (Warner Bros 7073) (Arr.)
[Jackie DeShannon's previously cited "I Keep Wanting You" falls into this period as well].
[Charles Koppelman and Don Rubin supervised a talented stable of writers and producers (Artie Kornfield and Steve Duboff, Joe Wissert, and ex-Magicians Alan Gordon and Garry Bonner among them), and had hits like "If I Were a Carpenter" with Bobby Darin and "Happy Together" with the Turtles. Nitzsche worked with K&R for a time, and apparently did not relish the experience, except for working with Garry Bonner...]

The best. The best white soul singer ever. I did a record with him called "Juliet Jones". That was really good, I think, that one holds up. Garry Bonner, the White Tornado. The best. I did a record wtih Bobby Hatfield called "I'm Free," which was a really good record, but they never released it, 'cause he couldn't sing it. The reason he couldn't sing it was he came in and he wasn't making it on the vocals, so Garry Bonner came up to the microphone and said, "Let me sing it one time for you," and he sang it, Hatfield walked out and said, "Why don't you do it, I can't do that!" What a singer!

Ruff Times

9-69     Tony Ray-Here Comes School Again/Lonely Weekends (Dot 17301) (Arr.)
7-70     Them-Weekends/I Am Waiting (Jagger/Richard)(Happy Tiger 52511)(Arr.)
Oh my God. Well, I didn't do that one [Tony Ray]. Oh my God! Is it the same track ["Lonely Weekends"]? Has to be. "I Am Waiting." I don't remember doing that. Sometimes they put the name on both sides of the record, but that doesn't mean I did it, I was asleep during these. I was chewing tobacco and spitting into a can. Ray Ruff. Weird! I wondered what he was doing in the studio. Yeah, it's probably mine. I don't remember that one at all.
[Ray Ruff, a Buddy Holly-ish rocker in the early 60's and producer of the Blue Things, apparently wigged out a bit in the later 60's when he was a staff producer for Dot and Happy Tiger, and recently he surfaced with a ridiculously grandiose rock opera telling the story of the Bible called Truth Of Truths (Oak Records) and in 1976 with a no-less-modest Bicentennial rock tribute album Happy Birthday USA on 20th Century [featuring Paul Revere & the Raiders on one cut]. Actually the near-identical arrangements of "Lonely Weekends" are both good rockers and Tony Ray's A-side is a nifty Eddie Cochran adaptation. The Them in question is a highly dubious post-Van Morrison aggregation.]
