robert
thanks for sharing the loss of gene page...i had no idea how much
of a contribution he had in uncle phils wall of sound arrangements
...and the bridge in be my baby (especially in stereo)!!! is a
favorite of mine. i think it is very important to reflect here
that YES phil had the sound he wanted in his head but it took jack
and gene to "make " it happen on the record, so all in all where
phil had the idea,...he needed these seasoned professionals to
relay his "sound" to wax. which many people "know " he did...hence
the overdubbing etc...to create the wall of sound we hear today. i
have nothing but respect for those "little symphonies for the
kiddies" but gene and jack and even the other unsung heroes no one
knows about have made monumental contributions to the spector sound
including even the artists, performers ,and singers.thanks again
robert for "being there" and most importantly....sharing your past
with us.

Interesting reading what you have found in thrift stores.
Over here (London) the charity shops have an uncannily similar
selection. My set of Herb Alperts' first 14 LPs has come from
charity shops, none costing more than 1 each. Andy Williams is
always there, and I was in a charity shop on Monday last and there
was one of his Xmas records. You hardly ever see Burt Bacharach
because the Easy Listening trend of a couple of years ago made him
a bit popular again. Lots of Tom Jones, Englebert Humperdink though.
Seems that it's the same cast offs wherever you are....
All the best, Kieron

...well jack,glad to see we have a sense of humor going on here at
spectropop!
i will try to catch the angry beavers, not to be political BUT...
it's good to see friends finding levity ...and cool music, in todays
"clinton witch hunt" multimedia! wish i could take a vacation, not
from work but from the planet...so tired of hearing the clinton
thing ...and so goes my question...to all my spectropop friends...
the old island album thing, if you had 5 lps(cds) to take on a
deserted island forever...could you make a choice? personally i
could not but i`m very interested in every one elses opinions.
...of course i would take all my ronnie spector /ronettes lps.
lets have some fun :-)
