I posted this track to Louvain and asked if it brought back any memories.

Louvain Demps:

Laughing when i listened to this.....do i ever have memories ! yes ! this was done in Chicago....On this session, i hired Mary Wilson, to sing with us, yes, the one and only Mary Wilson [[ i picked her, because i felt she had the better voice of the three.) smile Jackie , Marlene , Mary , and myself ended up on the floor in the recording booth, almost in tears, we could hardly sing for a moment laughing so hard at a line John Lee had sung....that would be told to that someone special....at a later time [[sorry )

Louvain Demps:

John Lee, called me often...when i would say " Hi, John Lee " he would ask me....."How did you know it was me".....wonder why? smile

I wonder if Mary remembers this song.

[theboyfromxtown]

If not the song then I suspect she will remember the fun aspect. We tend to remember stuff like that.

I will see her in a couple of weeks and you're right. We remember the fun things above all else.
