I've seen the following cd advertised, and I wonder if
anyone can tell me what exact songs are on it:

Various Artists - Dream Girls ( 60's Rare) (2cd) 60
tracks (Euro.) CC 1492	

any help would be appreciated.

Could Someone repost the "Jill Gibson - It's as Easy
As 1-2-3" Mp3?  I was away from my main PC last month
and couldn't download it.

PS: is this the mono 45 mix or the stereo LP version?
If its the stereo mix I already have it. Strange to
think of this, but this song was issued on 3 different
Jan & Dean albums by Liberty Records (The Little Old
Lady, Deadman's Curve/New Girl in School and Popsicle)
guess they liked it a lot!

Thanks Billy

on his Eve of Destruction album . . .

Subject: The Orchids again

Hello group,

I am thoroughly enjoying the two rackss by The Orchids that
somebody (I can't remember who) [played] a couple weeks back.

But......I am hungry for more!  Can anyone out there [play]
the rest of their songs?  I have "Oo-Chang-A-Lang" (the most 
Spector-ish song they ever did) that I'd be glad to [play] -- 
if someone could just tell me how.  :-)

Anyway, it's just an idea from someone who can't sleep at
2 a.m....

Back to bed,

Scott

Subject: Arthur Lee - Arranger???

A few years ago I asked on this list but don't remember
any response to my question as to whether A. Lee did
any/all of the magnificent arrangements on Forever
Changes? (horns, vocals, strings, etc).  If not he, who,
or whom?) BTW what is his ETR (estimated time of release
- from the pen)?

Subject: Hello and Help?!?!?

Hello, 

First, sorry for sending this to so many places all at
once but I'd like to get as much input as possible as
quickly as possible.

I am music director at KDHX FM 88.1 in St. Louis,
Missouri, and my new goal is to market our Morning Show
-- 6 to 9 a.m. M-F (6 to 8 on Tuesday) -- as effectively
as possible and, to be honest, the retro/oldies scene is
not my forte. What I'm looking for are some sources of
'50's & '60's music magazines (I'm looking for those
reviews of the new Doris Day album from someone who is
really excited!), advertisements for radio stations,
airchecks of '50's '60's station promos, etc., etc. The
idea is to use these as inspirations for our own print
ads and on-air promos for the Morning Show.

Our main retro/oldies competitor in town is WEW 770 AM
and I'd love to run an ad that takes off on early stereo
ads. "Listen to your favorite hits in crystal clear
STEREO, the new modern sound of the future."

Here is a playlist from a recent Morning Show, 01 /17/01,
and as you can see it's not entirely retro/oldies but
that's where the host's main interests are.

You can listen via the internet at <http://www.kdhx.org>

and tomorrow, Thursday, is Soul Thursday which will be
full of great soul and r&b, much of it fairly obscure.
Check it out and let me know what you think.

Thanks,

Tony Renner
