   From: Phil Chapman 
Subject: Then He Kissed Me - official!

After suggesting we ask another musician on the session, I took 
a look at Carol Kaye's website and spotted "Then He Kissed Me" 
in the list of bass playing credits. Carol is busy preparing her 
new book & CD but is always enthusiastic to discuss technique. 
I sent her an mp3 of the intro, and this is what she had to say:

"Hi Phil, my best to all on the list. Just from the little bit 
I heard, somehow I think I'm playing the elec. 12-string on that, 
not the bass....I played it that way with a lot of attack...had 
some powerful pickups in my Gretsch 6-string changed over to the 
elec. 12-string I always used on dates." 

"Barney Kessel and I started at the same time, the ONLY studio 
guitarists who electrified the 12-string guitar...no-one saw the 
potential in that until later...hence the modified Gretsch guitar 
with the powerful pickups."

"And that has to be Ray Pohlman on bass, a very soft sound (my 
bass sound was usually pretty hard, I always played hard with a 
hard pick etc., very distinctive sound...Ray always had a soft 
sound, good groover etc..)"

and in a subsequent email:

"Just heard from Russ Wapensky, and according to the contracts it 
was Ray on bass, I'm on elec. 12-string...thought I recognized my 
sounds and attack...so now it's official! I'll change it on the 
website, thanks for the heads up.
CK "

Many thanks to Carol for taking time out to look into it.

Phil

Incidentally, spurred on by the substantial reissue market, Russ 
Wapensky is currently researching archived Musicians Union session 
contracts, mainly from the 60s. He is planning to publish a book in 
the new year identifying the musicians who played the hits. 
Should settle a few arguments.

'60s pop groups... zombie7123: > There's been some discussion here about oldies being used in > TV and radio commercials -- a seemingly modern curse. But I > have evidence that many bands back in the '60s were total > sell-outs There are plenty of records available featuring bands doing ads for soft drinks, beer and other consumer products in the 60s. I have an LP with 9 bands doing their version of the Pepsi jingle "Pepsi pours it on" from September 1968. It is labeled Pepsi Cola Youth Market 1969 30 second radio. There is no production company listed but it sounds like each band recorded the tune in their own studio and sent it to the agency. The LP includes the Standard full vocal or generic version, The Four Tops, Jackie DeShannon, The Turtles, Martha Reeves and the Vandellas, Wilson Pickett, The Stone Ponys, Union Gap and John Hartford. Each version of the tune is customized to sound more like the artists represented. For example, The Stone Ponys version features the Harpsichord sound from "Different drum". I can tell you, the version by Wilson Pickett will make your hair stand up on end! In the bridge, Wilson lets out a terror inducing shriek followed by a resounding "taste that beats the others cold, Pepsi pours it on!" Honestly, you'll want to drop everything and run screaming to the store for a cold bottle of Pepsi! I would not characterize these jingles as sell-outs. Probably back then the band got paid union scale and nothing else. There were no incredibly lucrative endorsement packages ala Michael Jackson's stint with soft drinks. I also have The Troggs Miller beer commercials! These were issued by McCann Erickson, a rather well known ad agency. Apparently, the Miller campaign "Special Place" from 1969 was not for airplay. It must have strictly for promotion to bars and distributors. It also includes Brook Benton and Johnny Mack. Again, I'm almost certain none of these acts made any substantial money from the ads. They must have been viewed as extra exposure for the artists and not a money making opportunity. Cheers, Neil Hever -------------------[ archived by Spectropop ]-------------------

If you can ever dig up those DC5 TV appearances on tape, many times Dave's kit was set right up-front with the rest of the band, not in the back like other bands. Many times he played them while standing up, not sitting on a stool. With him bashing the hell out of his kit (even while lip-synching) no wonder so many American kids like "The Mighty Max" wanted to play the drums. He might not have been a great or super-technincal drummer but he had a powerful presence on stage. -------------------[ archived by Spectropop ]-------------------

It's actually quite a lot of fun :) After all the years of wondering why this got released, I finally found something about them in Vernon Joynson's "Fuzz Acid & Flowers": http://www.borderlinebooks.com/us6070s/t2r.html Personnel: C.C. COURTNEY LEW "KING" KIRBY " The band was a result of two New Orleans DJs teaming up with The Pirates to disrupt a HERMAN'S HERMITS concert in the Municipal Auditorium. Courtney and Kirby had their bodies painted gold and were dressed in baggies! " [ Poor old HHs, and all they wanted to be was liked ] 45s: Their Singing Bodies - Diagnosis-Neurosis /You've Gotta Feel It (Back Stage 5002) 1965 The Singing Bodies - What Am I Gonna Do With You? /Maybe Baby (Chase 4000) 196? "Diagnosis-Neurosis is an amalgam of comedy, punk and Vietnam protest about the onset of paranoid schizophrenia. By the second 45 they were cured and delivered a faithful version of Buddy Holly's Maybe Baby." ...oh yeah? Actually, I am slightly disappointed that there appears to be a 'knowing' element to this recording. What I really appreciate are records that have been made in all seriousness, without any awareness that their endeavours could be judged a Frankenstein.

During the early sixties Coca-Cola ran a campaign ..."Things go better with Coke". They recreated a top recording...with the original artist and added a "New" section that kept repeating " Things go better with Coke!!" Sometimes they were so good you thought you were listening to the original!!! Some were made by the original producers.....others were created by the team of Garry Sherman and Stanley Kahan in NY.

Message: 9 Date: Tue, 22 Oct 2002 18:06:09 -0700 From: Guy Lawrence Subject: A Christmas Gift For You At this time of year the Spectropopper's mind naturally turns to "that" christmas album but U.K. members should beware of the following CD entitled "A Christmas Gift For You - A Tribute To Phil Spector" and performed by "Wall Of Sound" it has just been released by one of the biggest British budget labels. The sleeve blurb reads as follows... "Phil Spector's original album has long been unavailable, and with the man himself something of a recluse, it is difficult to know when it might be readily available. But fear not, for here is the next best thing. This album has been lovingly recorded as a tribute to Phil Spector, featuring faithful versions of the original thirteen tracks and three new recordings done in a similar style. The end result is an album that is as close to the original as you could hope to find. It is 'A Christmas Gift To You'....." Well, I suppose they have a point. The Christmas album has been frustratingly difficult to get in the UK in recent years and we have had to rely on scarce and expensive imports. If nothing else, with characteristic canniness, a budget label has spotted a gap in the market and jumped into it. I will keep an eye on the availability of the official version this year and keep you posted. As for the "tribute" - no, I didn't buy it and I haven't heard it yet but I can get my hands on plenty of them if anybody really wants one!

Mr Wayne, Would I be correct in assuming that you are THE Artie Wayne, Brill Building songwriter of some repute ("Midnight Mary" etc)? If so, may I wish you a very warm welcome to Spectropop and ask you about a nice little number you helped write for the Angels in 1962, "You Should Have Told Me". Who did the demo? Do you have a copy still? If, by some chance, you're a different Artie Wayne, welcome to Spectropop anyway. How come you were hanging out at an Aretha session? :-) MICK PATRICK -------------------[ archived by Spectropop ]-------------------

Dave played drums on every DC5 disk. A couple years ago I had the opportunity to speak to '60s session drummer Bobby Graham, and he confirmed that Dave Clark used session drummers on many (but not all) of the DC5 records from 1963 onwards. Bobby even told me about one instance where Clark invited reporters to a session to "prove" that he really played drums on his own records -- as soon as the reporters left, Clark brought Bobby in from another room and the session resumed! >The Dave Clark Drum sound is unmistakeable!!! ...and it was invented by Bobby Graham. :) Regards, Scott -------------------[ archived by Spectropop ]-------------------

There is indeed a bootleg CD available featuring dozens of these ads, recorded by many of our favorite period artists. If there's interest (read: I'm stalling for time here) I'll dig out my copy when I get home and post title and other info (if any). If I recall correctly a handful of non-Coke ads were tacked on at the end as filler. --Phil M. -------------------[ archived by Spectropop ]-------------------

I take Christie as meaning John Christie and not Jeff Christie. First glance may have the impression that he produced the group Christie, who had Yellow River as a hit. And, as if it is not general knowledge by now Christie's Yellow River was in fact the Tremeloes. Rick Westwood explains: "We made it with Dave Munden singing lead vocal and later substituted Jeff Christie's voice. I'm not really sure if Jeff went out on the road with Vic and Michael. Jeff was not in the band and Vic was the lead singer when I saw them." "I played the guitar fade on the record with a Fender Stratocaster, not my double-necked Mosrite. I used the Mosrite just for TV shows. It was too heavy to use on stage all the time." regards, Norman -------------------[ archived by Spectropop ]-------------------

Hi Phil, many of these were discussed in April (Forum Archives 436-445) and some great "Great Shakes" ads got played around. Do you have any of these? I'm looking for a copy of The Chiffons' spot without the tape drop-out. > Damn, I must be totally whacked. I still don't hear anything > off in the Singing Bodies at all. Given the things you've played to me off-list, that doesn't surprise me at all:-) > You really might dig The Shaggs after all. In a world in which > even Mrs. Miller has been "exposed" to have possibly been in > the know, these girls remain the ultimate in pure indisputable > sincerity. I don't doubt it, I'm not that familiar the girls, but I will be. My ideal material is when everybody involved (not just the act) think that they're making a great record, and they are, but not for the reasons they think. I've been on many of these sessions:-) Phil -------------------[ archived by Spectropop ]-------------------

Message: 18 Date: Thu, 14 Nov 2002 22:30:02 -0000 From: Martin Roberts Subject: Mark Wirtz stuff Less than a week after posting a request for info on Mark Wirtz's CDs for sale, a copy landed on my mat. If you're registered on Paypal, as I am, ordering a copy only took two minutes. Unfortunately, I'm having trouble with my CD player but "The Mark Wirtz Anthology" looks great, with informative, fun sleeve notes. Well done to the 'team' at capital M records. Talking of Mark...this month's MOJO has a small piece on Caroline Munro, a rather voluptuous brunette, still fondly remembered for her Captain Morgan Rum adverts, a Bond movie and a few Hammer Horror's. Hopefully she is known and loved on this site not for her striking 'hits' but for a terrific 'miss', "Tar And Cement". Released on UK Columbia in '67 she reveals in the interview how her debut 45, produced, arranged and conducted by Mark Wirtz, featured the Cream, (Eric Clapton, Ginger Baker and Jack Bruce) plus Stevie Howe as her backing musicians. Perhaps Mark can offer more reminiscences? Sad to say she doesn't have a copy - but she's not getting mine! A great song and production which, baffling to me, often has the B-side "This Sporting Life" included on CDs etc. Martin -------------------[ archived by Spectropop ]-------------------

If so, maybe you could look up the line-ups for some other MGM girl groups, as a treat for the obsessives amongst us? Here's just a few from the top of my head: Jackie Burns & the Bo-Bells The Paper Dolls The Whispering Winds The Models By the way, I took at look at your Righteous Brothers website the other day ( http://freespace.virgin.net/p.richmond/index.htm ), in the hope I'd be able to add something to your ongoing discographical endeavours. Fat chance! Rarely, if ever, have I seen such well organized and thoroughly researched work. The neat displays of picture sleeves and music sheets are gobsmacking. However, I did read recently that Jerry Ganey, of the Bill Medley-produced "Just A Fool" fame, was previously a member of the Clouds. But I bet you knew that already! :-) By the way, have you seen Mr Ruppli's Atlantic Records Discography? It contains a wealth of info on the Righteous Brothers Moonglow sessions. If not, please to just gimme the nod. MICK PATRICK -------------------[ archived by Spectropop ]-------------------
