JOsEph, Oberon, Titania and Puck with Fairies Dancing. We'll all be there for the new remixes, John! LOL! Sounds like a great line up. An Etta remix?! Is it Tell Mama? Now that's 2:20 that really needs to be stretched. I'm sure which ever one it is will be great, because your remixes always are!:cool:

Or is the reference to a "Golden Girls" and or "Frasier" episode?:)

Hi John,

Looking forward to tonights extended versions. Will probably run behind a few minutes so save the Davy Jones tribute till I get there. At the rate we're losing pop icons lately, your next project might have to be extending Rock And Roll Heaven since they truly are assembling a hell of a band:D

Glen....glad you'll be here. I will save the Davy for you....

[JimBagley]

Welcome Jim... and now here's a message for Depend undergarments

[JimBagley]

Hiding between the posts. Now that made me LOL.

Mary Brewster has received far too much shouting for being MIA

[JimBagley]

Are the Cornelius Brothers and Sister Rose all still with us? I never see them on PBS.

[midnight johnny]

Are the Cornelius Brothers and Sister Rose all still with us? I never see them on PBS.

Wiki....indicates that they are still with us. Phew!!!

[sophisticated_soul]

I got in, then I got kicked out, now I'm back in. The music's sounding great John - Cornelious Bros & Sister Rose medley is great! I love those songs!:cool:

[lovechild]

Are the Cornelius Brothers and Sister Rose all still with us? I never see them on PBS.
I saw them at Wal-Mart over the weekend and they asked if I have seen you lately Jim lol

[Glenpwood]

Evening John and the usual friends/ suspects;)

Love this medley of Cb&SR classics... How's everyone tonight?

[JimBagley]

I'm Wondering... cool beans I love this song ...

Welcome Glen, glad you made it!:cool:

[MotownSteve]

Thanks John. I agree with you that Robert Knight owns this. But, without going into names, he had the hit in the 60's, and it was a hit again in the 70's, 80's and 90's.

[JimBagley]

Per Tutta la Vita. And we are Jim, you,ToeKnee and I are the core audience of Nightflight's SDF thread! We are the Nighflight Andantes!:cool:

I will settle for being a Nightflight Andante.

Steve,

I hope you are ready for some gorgeous weather.

[Glenpwood]

Thanks Jim and John...

With back to back Im Wondering and Everlasting Love we seem to be on a string of some of my fave songs that should have been top 10 pop hits but got shut out at 12 and 13 respectively..... Actually both songs were in the top 20 together for one week with Wonder heading down and Knight rising to 19.....

[texassoul]

Hi John!! Sorry I'm late. Can't wait to hear some of your new remixes. When are you gonna post them?? So excited!!! Hope all's well with you.

Of course. Then it is back to Philadelphia to dine at the Belgian Cafe!

Poor Gladys, why is she going on Dancing With The Stars?

[Glenpwood]

But will the pieces of her mambo and fox trot carry Gladys to the Dancing With The Stars finale?

Welcome, Mike!!! I will get these up on youtube as soon as I can...thanks so much!!!

[texassoul]

Did everyone see the Unsung segment on David Ruffin last night? It was very well done last, although I would have liked 2 hours of it instead of just one!

[Glenpwood]

Poor Gladys, why is she going on Dancing With The Stars?

She is shaking what her Grandma gave her to sell that new CD she has coming out I suspect....

[texassoul]

I hope I haven't missed the new remix of Mitch Ryder. Have I??

[lovechild]

She is shaking what her Grandma gave her to sell that new CD she has coming out I suspect....

ah ok a new CD... I heard she said that she wants to do it because she never got to dance much with the Pips lol

[midnight johnny]

I hope I haven't missed the new remix of Mitch Ryder. Have I??

I have 3...played one....

[sophisticated_soul]

I love "Lather", what a great song. Btw, I didn't have to drag out my lava lamp, etc. I've never put them away, I'm just an old hippie at heart.:)

[lovechild]

this sounds like kate bush

[texassoul]

I have 3...played one....

Aw dang! Which one did I miss? :O[[

[MotownSteve]

I'm not sure it was one hour. I got an email from SoulTracks with a link to watching the show but it was only 36:36 in time.

[texassoul]

Contours!!! Tuuuuuune.

[MotownLover]

MJ!!!! Love me some extended sounds tonight!

Great stuff...the more extended the better, yes?

Lovin' it ALL!!! :cool:

[texassoul]

I'm not sure it was one hour. I got an email from SoulTracks with a link to watching the show but it was only 36:36 in time.

My DVR says 59 minutes. Just fast forwarded through it and it's 59 minutes, including commercials of course!

[midnight johnny]

Aw dang! Which one did I miss? :O[[

I'd Rather Go To Jail

[MotownSteve]

My DVR says 59 minutes.

The link might be without commercials. I do remember there were a lot of them. In any event, it was worth watching.

[texassoul]

I'd Rather Go To Jail

You'd rather go to jail than tell me???

[JimBagley]

Unsung featured way too much of Mrs Ruffin number two. And why were David Ruffin Jr and Jimmy Ruffin Jr a lot more attractive than the Ruffin daughters? Reminds me of Christopher Plummer being cuter than his daughter Amanda.

[sophisticated_soul]

Let's call the blue lobster Joni.;)

[lovechild]

YaY! hOORAY FOR Hazel! Love it JP! :)

[sophisticated_soul]

You'd rather go to jail than tell me???

LOL! Good one.:D

A lady always knows when to enter a room.

[JimBagley]

Talk about being fashionably late. You already used up your shoutouts Mary and you weren't here to hear them

[marybrewster]

YaY! hOORAY FOR Hazel! Love it JP! :)

Funny, never heard this song [[it's cute!) but IMMEDIATELY I thought of "Sweet Pea". One of those great voices of the 60's.

[sophisticated_soul]

A lady always knows when to enter a room.

Welcome Lady:cool:

[midnight johnny]

......[[*grin)

[Glenpwood]

John, forget Tell Mama, Tell Harry Weigner to get you on the payroll so we can get Universal to put this out! Love it!

[texassoul]

Etta James remix = top qwality!! Gotta have this! Luving the horns!

[midnight johnny]

Welcome marybrewster.....!!!

[marybrewster]

Talk about being fashionably late. You already used up your shoutouts Mary and you weren't here to hear them

There's always room for one more shout out for the "Official Drag Queen of WOMR 92.1".

[midnight johnny]

John, forget Tell Mama, Tell Harry Weigner to get you on the payroll so we can get Universal to put this out! Love it!

Glen....that's very kind!

[JimBagley]

You might have to battle the Ruffin sisters for that title.

[marybrewster]

Welcome marybrewster.....!!!

Thanks mj; sorry I'm late! Loving what I am hearing!

Ever consider an extended version of "Grazing in the Grass'" by the FoD? I bet you could have fun with the intro.

[sophisticated_soul]

From the drum roll and blaring horns "Tell Mama" kicks off hard and never lets up. Ever since I was 16 when, I mean ever since I was 3, when "Tell Mama" was first released I always thought, 'this song is too short'. And that was before there were remixes. Thanks John for stretching it out, great job. I'm so glad you and the gang enjoyed my Etta tribute. It proved very cathartic for me as well. Thanks again everybody. What would we do without music!?

[JimBagley]

Sing it Ann Bogan...

[lovechild]

Thanks mj; sorry I'm late! Loving what I am hearing!

hey i could go for some FoD remixes...

marybrewster....thanks so much. I will take a listen to "GITG" and see what I can come up with. Thanks for the suggestion!

[MotownSteve]

Hey John,
Did you see my email?

[texassoul]

Sorry to ask since you just told us who/what this is, but could you please tell me again? This is too nice to not know.

[sophisticated_soul]

There's always room for one more shout out for the "Official Drag Queen of WOMR 92.1".

All Hail The Queen!:)

Frances Nero...."Keep On Loving Me'

[JimBagley]

John,
Do you have an extended remix of Davy Jones singing Valleri? That's my favorite Davy Jones lead. Also love Davy doing Girl from The Brady Bunch.

[Glenpwood]

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh! [[in my best teen girl voice)

I just knew you'd pick this! My fave Davy lead..... This mix is Poppers o' Clock hands in the air brilliant!

[midnight johnny]

Jim....that's the only Monkees' track I've worked on.....

[JimBagley]

Oh. Maybe we'll have an extended Monkee night sometime.

[midnight johnny]

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh! [[in my best teen girl voice)

I just knew you'd pick this! My fave Davy lead..... This mix is Poppers o' Clock hands in the air brilliant!

Glad you likeeee, Glen!

[Glenpwood]

Jim, the first rockier mix of Valleri for the TV show or the rerecording for the single? Both are amazing in my book....

[JimBagley]

I like the latter better sonically, but I like the video with the rockier mix.

[sophisticated_soul]

This mix is Poppers o' Clock hands in the air brilliant!

LOL! Oh, I am going to have to remember that one. Now that's descriptive!:D

[Glenpwood]

The guitar work on the single is fantastic. Wish the RRHOF would stop being snobs and induct these guys. A majority of their sixties work is fantastic. The expanded albums and boxes on them are outstanding too....

[Glenpwood]

LOL! Oh, I am going to have to remember that one. Now that's descriptive!:D

Its a popular quote on the British Pop music sites of late so Ive adopted it.......

Love Is Only Sleeping! That was supposed to be a single but Colgems got cold feet at the last minute and went with Daydream Believer instead.... Love the entire Pisces Aquarius Capricorn and Jones Ltd. LP even though it knocked DRATS Greatest Hits out of number one,...

I like it, I'm adopting it too. I especially like the "hands in the air brilliant" part. Makes me think of Diana Ross! LOL!
