"Nightflight" Tues Jan 17, 9P-12M ET: "The SUPREME[[s) Remixes...Part ONE!"

[midnight johnny]

4163

Howdy there, Folks! Tonight...Part One of [[at least) a 2 part series. I have finally created not only an extended version for EVERY Supremes hit, but numerous [[and quite a few BRAND NEW) remixes of Supremes album tracks....altogether there are 76 of them!!

If you are familiar with my extended versions, you'll know that my intents with creating them are 2-fold: to make tracks longer that seemed too short in the first place, and to show off the production and instrumentation that is not always easily heard [[...and to do this with without losing the original integrity of the song).

So join me for ALL of the Supremes' [[60's AND 70's) Hits extended and more...tonight...on "Nightflight"...on WOMR 92.1 FM Provincetown and WFMR 91.3 FM Orleans and streaming live worldwide in digital stereo at www.womr.org [[http://www.womr.org)
THANKS!
John

[sophisticated_soul]

[midnight johnny]

Supremely Happy Forever!:) See you on the radio!:cool:

Awwwwwwwwww....that's JUST what I LOVE to hear!!! See you later my friend!
By the way...now there are 77 Supremes Extended Versions...I had forgotten one hit....[[*sheepish grin)

[midnight johnny]

MJ Hello, can't listen to your show,but a request[another one] for future remix CHUCK JACKSON-TAMMI TERRELL MAKE THE NIGHT JUST A LITTLE LONGER,Any chance soon, cheers.

honest man...sorry you'll miss the show. However....guess what? I LOVE requests like yours...especially when both versions have the same backing track...makes it so much more possible. Give me at least a day or two.

[midnight johnny]

Sounds great - thanks for the heads up!

Eric...it will be great to have you join the party!!!

[jobeterob]

I will turn this on even at work to listen!

And I will be hoping for your expert opinion, your version, of just who is singing in the background of these songs.........Lynda, Mary, Shantel, Kaaren, Cindy, Flo, Louvain, Jackie, Pat, Marlene, Barbara, Scherrie, Susaye.

And oh man..........if you are wrong and says there are Andantes or Blossoms or anybody but the Supremes, I just don't know what we'll do. Perhaps a holding of the breath, a stamping of the feet and laying down on the floor and kicking??

Rob, there are so many extended versions to play...I don't think I will have the time to pleasure myself....with thoughts about the background ladies. As far as who is singing backup on "Stop! In the Name of Love"...I'm just glad the truth is finally out!

[jobeterob]

Well, they are all good ladies, Andantes included.

I'm gonna have to start quoting some of my knowledgeable friends in my ongoing debate..........Andrew, um, Andy, John L, John P...........all good men.

Have a good show.

[midnight johnny]

Thanks, Rob!

[JimBagley]

Looking forward to tonight's show, John. Have fun.

[sophisticated_soul]

Glad you got them, John. Included a few more Odds and Ends this time.

[midnight johnny]

Folks....I thought of something that might add a little spin to the show [[get it???? SPIN????)! I will play the tracks chronologically....but I will also play your requests. Keep in mind...i have all the hits....plus many of the album tracks...so I might have made a remix of one of your favorites...but I DON'T have an extended version of "He Holds his Own"...that one was long enough...thank you! [[*smile)

STEEEERIKE ONE! Jim...one of the one by the SUE-premes that I don't have. I really didn't like their version. The TEPTS really killed that one for me liking any other.

[sophisticated_soul]

Glad I realized I missed one...I would have hated to do it to the tune of "76 Trombones"! Phewwwwwwwwww.....

lol! Good one Johnny! :)

[sophisticated_soul]

Well, since you already said you didn't do the lovely "He Holds His Own", how about "All I Know About You"? That one really needed to be put on the rack!:):cool:

[midnight johnny]

HI Howard. You are welcome to make a request that John won't have.

[MotownLover]

Howse about "It's Time To Break Down" from the Jean Terrell Supremes from the New Ways, But Love Stays album? It's always been one of my favorites. Never understood why it wasn't released as a single.

Howard in Long Beach, CA

[carole cucumber]

TONYYYYYYY....welcome!!!!! STTEEEEERIKE FOUR....no "Bah Bah Bah"...and you can't just request anything from an album....that's not fair.

[carole cucumber]

Johnny darlin,

I was stating that your extended mix of TCB incorporated a phrasing technique that sounded similar to that used on Nathan Jones.
And by the way, I am requesting Nathan Jones FORMALLY..... Do I get to take first base?

[sophisticated_soul]

The Sheep Sheep Song

Good one Jim!:cool:

[JimBagley]

If John left Carole Cucumber's pick at home, we should probably give up and stop requesting.

[JimBagley]

Good one Jim!:cool:

Thanks JOE, I liked that name too. Take that, Betty Everett.

[midnight johnny]

If John left Carole Cucumber's pick at home, we should probably give up and stop requesting.


Noooo, Jim...I brought all there is to play...all 77. If I don't have it, I didn't make a remix of it. SEVENTY SEVEN!

[carole cucumber]

Isn't "I Want To Know Your Name" one of the incomplete [[band only, no vocals) tracks that the simply divine Andy Skurow said is tucked away in the voluminous vaults of Motown?

[lovechild]

Isn't Carole Cucumber the cousin of Patty Tomato?

[JimBagley]

My follow-up request is the ultra megamix of Never Can Say Goodbye.

[JimBagley]

No, but I think she's the mother of Hedda Lettuce!

That is so bad that it's good

[Glenpwood]

Evening Johnny!

Sorry im so late.... But glad youve focused on the obscure stuff like Baby Love until I could get here hehe

[lovechild]

I like this version too but the poor honey bee is out of breath! lol

[carole cucumber]

Honey...no Mary or Cindy, but no Ivy Jo or Deke either...

[sophisticated_soul]

good one Joseph - did you wear this to the GG awards on Sunday? hehe

I did. With Levis and a t-shirt!;)

[lovechild]

Thank you for He's All I've Got ...after all of these years it still gives me goose bumps when I hear it...:)

[carole cucumber]

Isn't Carole Cucumber the cousin of Patty Tomato?

I may be green around the gills , but rumor has it that cousin Patty's been splattered all over, if you catch my drift.....

[lovechild]

did everyone get their postponement email for the arrival of Diana76?

[sophisticated_soul]

Two versions of NBH! Too much is never enough! Bring it on!:cool:

[sophisticated_soul]

did everyone get their postponement email for the arrival of Diana76?

Yup.:[[____

[carole cucumber]

did everyone get their postponement email for the arrival of Diana76?

Miss Diana is going to be fashionably late... I don't know if Mr. Berry Gordy would approve
... or Mrs. Powell for that matter...and Mrs Thurston Howell'll probably be nonplussed!

[carole cucumber]

Time for a little Jean.....
Your Favorite.. Up The Ladder To the Roof
Pretty please with Splenda on it!

[lovechild]

Miss Diana is going to be fashionably late... I don't know if Mr. Berry Gordy would approve
... or Mrs. Powell for that matter...and Mrs Thurston Howell'll probably be nonplussed!
Mrs Thurston Howell - I can see her and Ginger and MaryAnn now dressed in the TCB dresses lol

[JimBagley]

did everyone get their postponement email for the arrival of Diana76?

I'm sure the delay will be worth it.

[sophisticated_soul]

NBHX2, awesome John, thank you so much. I'm completely heartbroken - in a good way!:cool:

[JimBagley]

Mrs Thurston Howell - I can see her and Ginger and MaryAnn now dressed in the TCB dresses lol

Of course performing as the Honey Bees.

[lovechild]

how about But I Love You More?

[JimBagley]

how about But I Love You More?

Hold on pardner. I haven't gotten even one request on the air tonight. And I still haven't heard if John has the Jean Terrell Never Can Say Goodbye ultra super megamix.

[carole cucumber]

Wasn't it clever how they hid Ivy Jo and Deke behind palm trees so that they wouldn't be seen doing their background vocals for Ginger, Mary Ann & Mrs. Howell ala the Andantes?

[lovechild]

Hold on pardner. I haven't gotten even one request on the air tonight. And I still haven't heard if John has the Jean Terrell Never Can Say Goodbye ultra super megamix.
LOL ok JImmy I will wait until we hear your megamix .. but then all bets are off ... hehe

[JimBagley]

Glad to hear you are adopting again.

[lovechild]

oh my goodness are you saying that Carol is not really a cucumber? lol

[lovechild]

[carole cucumber]

Cindy phased left, Cindy phased right. You go girl. I'm lovin' it. Sweet, sweet Jean, you can sing to me anytime! Mary, you make me tingle..... thank you Johnny.....

[Glenpwood]

Run Run Run stretched to the duration of a triathalon.... Love it!

[JimBagley]

LOL ok JImmy I will wait until we hear your megamix .. but then all bets are off ... hehe

I think my request at post # 58 got missed. Or maybe it is being saved for the finale.

[carole cucumber]

That Marlene could really get that sax to burp or was it ........ that she used to get to burp?

[lovechild]

Hey I really like this mix of Kiss of Fire. way to go JP!

[lovechild]

Loud and clear here Johnny

[lovechild]

re: But I Love You more - no problem Johnny - I know it will be even more special when you are able to do something with it... :)

[jayedsel]

I luv it. Johnny, you are gettin' down. My windows are rattling. I hope they don't shatter.

Jay

[lovechild]

Who Could Ever Doubt My Love - Awesome! nice surprise JP! Thanks...

[carole cucumber]

One of the Isley Brothers was named Diana... very clever...

[carole cucumber]

Brenda+ Ronnie+Diana= Wow

[carole cucumber]

I'll be back in a minute.. I suddenly have a craving for a chocolate shake.

[lovechild]

I'll be back in a minute.. I suddenly have a craving for a chocolate shake.
mmm bring me one too Carole :)

[carole cucumber]

Lordy, Johnny did you ever try to make a chocolate shake to that beat. Ice cream and milk flying everywhere.... I'll be right back after I change.

[carole cucumber]

Stop the food references. You're killing my diet!!!!!

[sophisticated_soul]

Hey John are these gems going to be available in a box set, "My favorite 77"! Can I pre-order! LOL!:cool:

[lovechild]

WooHoo JP! on to the 3rd page tonght! Fast paced great show! :)

[carole cucumber]

After the last 2 songs I ain't never gonna fit in a bikini!

[sophisticated_soul]

Even Dr. Goldfoot! Alright!:cool:

[carole cucumber]

I'm back. I'm all changed. Things Are Changing- needs more echo LOL I've always loved how the Supremes version is mixed to feature Flo then Mary alternating as the dominant background voice. Was Phil trying to give Motown a message?

[lovechild]

I Hear A Symphony has always been a major favorite of mine. Thanks JP ... great mix

[texassoul]

Howdy John! How are you tonight? Luvin' this remix...I Hear A Symphony!!

[carole cucumber]

The last 2 songs--- fabulous!!! Mary & ? in the background.

[JimBagley]

Like the sobs. Reminds me of Susan "Mamaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" Kohner in Imitation of Life.

[Glenpwood]

ROTFLOL love the added drama to LIHANYG

[Glenpwood]

Like the sobs. Reminds me of Susan "Mamaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" Kohner in Imitation of Life.

Im hoping Johnny adds Susan's Mamaaaaaaaaaaaaaas to Im Living In Shame

[lovechild]

that was interesting.... ;)

Cool thanks for Any Girl In Love ...

[sophisticated_soul]

Love the special effects on LIHANYG, didn't you do something similar with a Jean Supremes tune?:confused:

[texassoul]

I may be late and slow, but I'm getting the distinct feeling this is a Supremes Extended Remix show?

[carole cucumber]

Love the special effects on LIHANYG, didn't you do something similar with a Jean Supremes tune?:confused:

It'd probably work well with Tears Left Over.

[texassoul]

;o) ;o) ;o)

[JimBagley]

Im hoping Johnny adds Susan's Mamaaaaaaaaaaaaaas to Im Living In Shame

Perfect thematic melding of film and song.

[carole cucumber]

;o) ;o) ;o)

They make them big in Texas, don't they? You should be loving the big feel of these remixes. MJ is the king
of extended remixes.

[texassoul]

Carole: you mean what I know about John's remixes....pure qwality...brilliant mixing.

[JimBagley]

The Avon Lady !

[Glenpwood]

Stoned Love, The Speak and Spell version hehe

[lovechild]

hahahahahahahahahahahahaha love it hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

[Glenpwood]

Now I know what a duet between Jean and Shantel Baker could sound like thanks to the mooing.....

[JimBagley]

Somehow there's gotta be room to add Susan Kohner into this Stoned Loved remix.

[texassoul]

John: have you ever done a remix of any of Leon Ware's performances?

[sophisticated_soul]

I am ROTFLMSAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!:rolleyes:;):D:):cool:

[carole cucumber]

Johnny,
Do you have a version with just Jean's [[Stoned *7%#) lead without your special sound effects? If not could you please make one for next week? I'm fascinated by the breathiness of Jean's lead and would like to hear it in its entirety.

[texassoul]

LILAIIMH is one of my top fav Supremes songs!! Thank you John.

[JimBagley]

Unfortunately, I need to sign off now, as I have a meeting early tomorrow morning here on the east coast. Thank you all for a highly enjoyable night. I hope someone finds my Jean Terrell super megamix of Never Can Say Goodbye for me. See you in two weeks.

Jim

[texassoul]

Can't wait for you to post these on FB!!

[sophisticated_soul]

I think "Love Like An Itching . . ." was The Supremes best live performance of a hit on Ed Sullivan. They rocked that one!:cool:

Thank you for a very enjoyable and fun evening Johnny! looking forward to more next week...

[carole cucumber]

It's all coming back to me.. Shantel Baker used to be Patty Tomato's Avon Lady but she left fame and fortune behind to become a Supreme.

[Glenpwood]

Wow! Amazing show as always, Johnny. You might need to explore the idea of doing an annual Mad Libs Motown show. Enjoy your week and I'll try not to Moo uncontrollably the next time I hear Stoned Love ;)

[sophisticated_soul]

Rockin' Supremes show! Thanks John, thanks everyone. See you all next week.:cool:

Have a great vacation Jim.:)

[ejluther]

Thanks Eric....Now if you have ITunes...you can hear it there....just go to radio...eclectic...then WOMR alphabetically.

AND...the podcast was mislabeled...it was labeled as Part 3 Blinky...it has been corrrected to Andy and George part 3!

[ejluther]

I do have iTunes so thanks for the tip.

So does the now-correctly-labeled part #3 pick up where part #2 left off? Or is there more part #2 to come?

[midnight johnny]

I do have iTunes so thanks for the tip.

So does the now-correctly-labeled part #3 pick up where part #2 left off? Or is there more part #2 to come?

Eric...that Part 3 show follow part 2...it should be about 55 minutes long.

[ejluther]

Great! Thanks - I look forward to hearing it since I missed it the first time...
