Subject: Re: RIP - Ed Townsend
How very sad to read Phil's posting on the death of Ed Townsend,
I had some S'pop friends visit Wednesday and Ed's name was
mentioned, we all agreed what a great talent he was. Taking a
look through our records there can't be many of us that won't
come across Ed's name as either writer or producer on more than
a few favourites.
I thought it would be nice to play one of Mr. Townsend's vocal
records to musica, a fairly hard choice. His own vocal of the
Shirelles hit, "I Might Like It" on Maxx is a goodie as is
"There's No Other" on Liberty and there are many more records
by him that I haven't got than I have. But the record that got
my vote is from his time with Capitol in the late 50s. Most of
this material is probably too 'middle of the road' for S'pop but
"Don't Ever Leave Me" conducted by Nelson Riddle (as most of his
Capitol sides are) is a wonderfully atmospheric ballad (almost
Nitzsche-like), with Ed singing as good as he ever had.

It's especially nice for him (Mike Gibbins), considering the fact
neither he nor Joey Molland had anything to do with writing the song.
The two guys that did write it, Pete Ham and Tom Evans, both hung
themselves. Enjoy the pool, Mike!

And I won't argue with that! Although I would acknowledge
that the pressing of many of Jackie's Liberty records sound
slightly dull and lifeless. When these same tracks have been
mastered for CD the power and beauty leaps out of the grooves.
Talking of "Needles And Pins", anyone else heard the story
(or have I made it up!) that really the record was written by
Jack Nitzsche and Jackie DeShannon but the co-credit was given
to Sonny Bono due to his lack of funds at the time?

Actually, I just got the CD reissue of the GREEN TAMBOURINE album
last summer, and other than the title track and "Rice Is Nice" (both
of which, incidentally, are pretty swell), there's some really quite
good semi-hard psychedelic rock on there! Unlike the majority of
Buddah albums, this one is actually entirely listenable throughout.

That's the series Mikey, mine is Vol. 12 it says on the sleeve
notes that they have changed there label name from Farmer Records
to Teeny Weeny Records from this release. First track is;
Danny Jordan - Just Couldn't Resist Her With Her Pocket Transistor
(wr Keller-Kolber) Leader 811 '60. With another 29 tracks that are
just as fun and obscure. My reason in wanting to contact them is
that some of the details are incomplete.

Same producers, yes, but it sounds more like an Osmonds outtake to me.

Someone in France is trying to do that right now. The Josie and
The Pussycats tracks are definitely a challenge to license . . .
even though they came out on Capitol, they were never Capitol masters.
Hanna-Barbera Studios retained ownership, and you have to go through
AOL/Time Warner to get 'em . . . plus, you need permission from Archie
Comics, which owns the Pussycats name . . . it's a complicated process
that's probably scared away prospective compilation producers in the
past. It CAN be done, though!

Unfortunately, new recordings from Patrice Holloway are probably
out of the question . . . I hear that her current state of health
is not good. But I definitely second your motion for a long-overdue
Patrice/Pussycats compilation, with "Stolen Hours" as the title track!

Mike Edwards:

Mike, around about this time thirty years ago, I worked as
engineer on Badfinger's first Warner Brothers album. Pete was
generally down - there were background management issues, and
he readily admitted he'd never really got over not having the
successful version of their own song "Without You" - "...nobody
thought it was a hit". He really tried with "I Miss You", and
put a lot of store by it. Tommy, on the other hand, was more
pragmatic, after all, they were earning from the song, he thought.
Pete's tragic death (and later, Tommy's) really shook me, as I was
relatively new to the music business, and had little awareness of
the effect it can have on sensitive souls.

I'd get your record deck seen to, Marty! J deS's
"Needles And Pins" on the US 45 virtually vaults
out of the speakers, having a kick drum sound way
deeper than anything I'd heard to date, including
most Motown 45s. And the UK 45 of "When You Walk
In The Room" leaves the stereo reissue standing.

Not heard that one before, but I've often wondered why
Jack & Sonny appear to have collaborated on only the one
tune, and such a big hit. You'd've thought they may have
at least written one or two more?

Badfinger played in Delaware in the 80s at a place called
Cowboys. It was Mike, Tom and some other guys. After the
gig I see this guy walking by who looks familiar. He's
looking at me like he knows me. I'm thinking it's somebody
from high school or something, but it was Joey Molland.
He made his way to the dressing room where Tom tries to
knock his head off. Turns out he was touring under the
Badfinger name too which didn't go over well with Evans.
Even stranger is that Molland was living in Wilmington at
the time. Hardly a rock and roll stronghold.

Sad indeed, Martin. I'm a recent convert to Ed, on the strength
of one awesome 45, 'Who Would Deny Me", on MGM. Have a listen:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/spectropop/files/musica
I knew 'Lets Get It On' and his work with Theola Kilgore of course
but he was a new name to me until Kendra (Kenni Woods) Spotswood
mentioned how good he was when she was here last year. I bought the
45 the same weekend.

I recently purchased "Magical Musical History Tour." Good as

to have no details behind the less well known songs.
Maybe someone out there wrote liners notes for the CD and
just forgot to turn them over to the producers?

Subject: Re: The Lemon Pipers
I have a 45 on the Prism label (based out of Dayton,
OH) of Ivan and the Sabres, "Just Let Her Go" b/w
"It's Not Like You." Both very good mid-'60s
Beatlesque pop, but notable for being led by Ivan
Browne, who later sang on most of the Lemon Pipers
hits and album tracks. The voice is definitely the
same, although he added a little more vibrato and a
slightly higher pitch during the LP days.
I don't know how many other Sabres became Lemon Pipers
or whether it was a straight transition from one group
to the other.
To me, the 1910 Fruitgum Co. were the best of the
Buddah bands, with some stronger material, and a
slight bit more autonomy. They were originally known
variously as the Odyssey and Jeckell and the Hydes.

Phil, given the legendary (and massively influential) status
of Bonham's drum sound, your anecdote about his drunken
reaction to Dee Dee's "Foolish Fool" (a fave of mine too) is
most interesting. Can you date the session?
Besides writing for (and with) Ms. Warwick, Ed Townsend produced
many of her sides, going back to '65. On their first, for Blue
Rock - "Do It With All Your Heart" - Warwick herself claims to be
the drummer!
Cheers to Martin - thanks for playing the Blossoms.

Sounds like they were going after a bit of the "Macarthur Park"
market what with it being very long.
It's a fantastic record but realistically I don't know why MGM
thought it might be a hit. I wish record companies these days
were that willing to stick their neck out and put out such a non
commercial, albeit artistic, product.

Thanx Susan:
Where did you get your info, ma'am? I've tried to get any info
at all during the last few weeks, but it seems the DVD release may
have been canceled. I had read a release date for it on:
http://www.dvdpricesearch.com/ ...for tomorrow the 19th of August,
but it seems none of the regular sites I order from have it listed
at all:
http://www.deepdiscountdvd.com/ This is the cheapest and has the
best return policy... and great customer service... but their info
dept. doesn't have much to offer.
http://www.dvdplanet.com/ This site is pretty good in the info dept.,
except in this case. The only thing they had to offer was "The Point
- Not available on DVD, no announcement."
http://www.harryfest.com/article24623.html
There is a small amount of info concerning pre-orders at this site,
but that's all I could dig up. In fact, isn't this site run by one of
our S'Pop cohorts?
So, I am in my usual state of net-quandary.
I beg thee valid information.

Thanks, Simon for playing Ed Townsend's "Who Would Deny Me"
to musica, a cracking song and a new one to me.
Mick Patrick in the 'good old days' of C.90s was the first to
introduce me to the vocal recordings of Ed. At the time they
were perhaps to soulful for my tender ears but the tunes had
that something that kept me replaying them. I no longer have
a tape player but one track I remember very fondly is Ed's
version of "Down Home". Perhaps he'd care to play it to musica?

Subject: Badfinger, Lemon Pipers
Much as I love Nilsson I must confess a special place in my
heart for Badfinger's original "Without You" not to mention
the entire NO DICE album. The remaining guys played at Beatle
Fest in Chicago back in 1987; I was fortunate enough to be in
the audience, and they were joined by Billy Preston. At the time
I knew nothing of Preston's connection with Apple and the Beatles!
I think what John Fox meant to say re the Lemon Pipers was that
Buddah's 45s packaging of them ("Turn Around-Take A Look", "Green Tambourine", "Jelly Jungle") emphasized the bubblegum aspect. It's
true that the GREEN TAMBOURINE and JUNGLE MARMALADE LPs both contain
some groovy, hard-edged psych rock.
BTW John, I never did hear from Paul Trefzger--before my "Tears Come
Tumbling" I'll have to try and contact him again! ! !

I used to do a soul show and tried to play difficult to find 45s.
I had a copy of "Foolish Fool" and had never heard it before my
rekkid detective found it in '84. I hadn't even heard of Dee Dee
but that was yesterday and yesterdaze gone. Anyway the point of
this story? Oh yeah, the point is that I used to pride myself on
the art of the "talkup" as a radio DJ. A talkup is when the DJ
talks over the instrumental introduction of a record up to the
'post'. The post being where the vocalist on the record steps in
and the DJ should shut up to avoid stepping on the vocal. I had a
promo copy of the 45 where it gives you intro time so you can plan
your blather. I distinctly remember introducing that song right
before the post by saying "Dee Dee Warwick here, sister of Dionne
by the way, singing about a fool...not just any fool mind you, but
a.....FOOLISH fool." Oh what fun we had.
