Can anyone tell me anything about who produced for Mel
Carter? I recently heard his rendition of "When a Boy
Falls in Love"...Great! I always loved the full
orchestral sound behind all his stuff. I see he is
currently touring, to my great delight.
Anyone?

Hi gang...Did you know???? This Friday, October 27 the
Berklee College of Music Bass Ensemble here in good ol'
Boston is presenting a tribute to the bass-stylings of
our own Carol Kaye by presenting arrangements of many of
the songs on which she played...
Congratulations to Carol and the integrity of Soft
Pop...JB

I've heard "Da Doo Ron Ron" played at slower speeds on
the radio, in marked contrast to wht I hear on my trusty
old 45 RPM. I've always bveen curious about that... any
clues?

Subject: Back To Mono
Dear all,
I was gazing at the Back To Mono box set the other day
and wondering what caused Phil Spector to start his Back
To Mono campaign. Although the Mark Ribowsky book talks
about Phil recording in mono, it doesn't say anything
about Back To Mono. When did Phil do this? Was it the
result of a record he'd produced not being as successful
as it could have been?
All the best,
Kieron

I just got the Monkees two-cd set, my first Monkees on cd.
All my favorite tracks are here, plus the booklet is good
as well. My first impression was that boy, those Jeff
Barry productions are the best.
But then I suddenly noticed that Mike's "Papa Gene's
Blues" really sounds a lot--a LOT--like a Ricky Nelson
sort of track. Naturally, James Burton's guitar is the
direct connection, but it seems to me that it goes
further than just that. The whole song has a kind of
Ricky Nelson sound, calling to mind none other than
"Hello Mary Lou" itself.
FYI.
Jack

>From the newswire:
"In a deliberate attempt to fan the flames of the
file-sharing debate, British alt-pop group Chumbawamba
has illegally--and proudly-- sampled the music of Eminem,
the Beatles, Madonna, Metallica, and Dr. Dre in a song
titled "Pass It Along (MP3 mix)." The British group, is
encouraging people to download it and, as the title
suggests, pass it along.
"Pass It Along (MP3 mix)" was created as "a reaction to
the hokum that opposing file sharing is somehow linked to
artistic integrity," according to a statement by a
spokesperson for Chumbawamba.
Chumbawamba vocalist Dunstan Bruce says, "It's hilarious
listening to the big record companies bleating on about
how file sharing is damaging art. They wouldn't recognize
art or artistic integrity if they bounded over and bit
them on the arse.""

Hi, it's Christine and this is my first post.
I just got the Spector Back to Mono boxset. I noticed
Lenny Bruce is listed under musicians, but didn't see
which song. So does anyone know which track he played on?
He's credited for percussion & background vocals.
Back to lurking now...
Thanks!
Christine
