... How is it that a New York producer (and one of the architects of the girl group sound) winds up one of the architects of the Philly sound? I realize...
FYI, I met Sandy Linzer briefly at a voice-over job just before Christmas. He is working on music projects with one of my clients here in New Jersey. I didn't...
... And I suspect some people who weren't around at the time may be familiar with the arrangements through later recordings that borrow from Phil's Christmas...
... The Ventures version is on thier classic "The Ventures Knock Me Out!" album. After listening to it on CD they might have done just that. It sounds...
... I incline to agree, for the reasons Phil stated although, in my experience, the really seriously obscure rarities are slightly more likely to come up on...
... Another alternative, with seemingly ties to Gemm as it appears the same sellers and items are offered for sale, is www.musicstack.com. It seems Gemm...
... Not convinced they did copy it Richard, take a listen to their Out A Space album they were producing those sort of sounds before The Beatles did by...

Sadly, Steve Tudanger passed away this morning. Steve was a member of The Four Evers, in the sixties who had a hit with "Be My Girl" on Smash Records. He later...
... That would be nice, but sadly Shel has been dead since 1999. His website www.shelsilverstein.com has a few mentions of his music but more about his...
... I suspect the feedback edit may have been the record company and not the Ventures. You might remember that they had a live album in the 60s that mentioned...
... I don't see it that way, actually. The way I see it, it has long been hard to draw a line between the Philly scene and the New York scene. Think about...
Another great record store is biting the proverbial dust. Aron's Records here in LA is calling it quits. According to the Associated Press: ...CD sales in the...
... Every time I've tried to buy something @ Music Stack, it's already been sold. Not that this doesn't happen @ GEMM as well, but ... reminds me, on GEMM,...
... These things take time, unfortunately. Volume 2, which will cover the years 1957 to 1962, should be out on Ace in a few months, with Vol 3 (1963 - 1969) to...
Kurt...thanks for the info about Arons' going out of business. I probably had more "Shadow Mann" vinyl lps sold out of his store than any other store in the ...
... I am so sad about Steve Tudanger. Over the past few years we had been in touch, via phone and mail (No computer--his eyesight wasn't up to it). He had two...

... My apologies. I did not know Shel had died. Just by coincidence, I happened to recite "Sarah Sylvia..." to my mom this past weekend just in joking around...
It's definitely lifted from the original USA record (you know the echoey version). It doesn't just sound similar, it's Identical. The Ventures version is in...
... This looks - and sounds - wonderful. What in god's name does the Edith Piaf version sound like? Only one way I'm going to find out.... Now, why didn't I...
Reading of Aron's Records reminded me of a store in the Ft. Lauderdale Area which closed a few years ago, Sir Arthur Oldies. In the 70s, Artie Appelbaum had a...

Steve will be buried on Wednesday in NY. I am hoping to put together a little book of remembrances about him to give to his closest friends and family. I can...
... I have to confess a bit of ignorance here - I always thought Sandy Linzer was a "she" and that the Sandy Linzer/Denny Randell team was a guy/gal (or in...
On the Ventures' first Christmas album, which came out in the mid-1960s, most of the holiday songs start out with an intro that is reminiscent of a hit song of...
