Well, thank you Mr Lester....them's words that make me proud! Wait 'til you hear my latest Velvelettes remix...I can believe that I hadn't done it before this!

When John plays the new Velvelettes remix, can one of you post the title so I can find out what it is when I wake up tomorrow please.

A summer song gives me the chills but your new mix gives me the big chills! thanks

[Glenpwood]

John,

Great versions of I'm Livin' In Shame and Good Lovin' Ain't Easy To Come By, those were some of my first Motown 45's as a kid from the Goodwill and I still love em.....

[JimBagley]

I'm livin' in shame cause I truly love Susan Kohner.

[sophisticated_soul]

Beautiful mix of "A Summer Song"!:cool:

"From Head To Toe" written by Smokey, produced by Smokey and Warren Moore.:cool:

[JimBagley]

If I was a Carpenter
Not Karen but Richard
Would you laugh at me anyway
Would you make fun of my sister

[midnight johnny]

"From Head To Toe" written by Smokey, produced by Smokey and Warren Moore.:cool:
Thank you, my Motown encyclopedia....[[*wink)

[sophisticated_soul]

I don't think the Four Tops version of "If I Were A Carpenter" is "better" then Darin's per se, but they made it their own and I like it best by the Tops, IMHO.:cool:

[carole cucumber]

Since Jim Bagley mentions them... got any extended Carpenters??

[lovechild]

[QUOTE=JimBagley;117901]If I was a Carpenter

Would you laugh at me

[Methuselah2]

Gosh, are you in Tops form! A man's REACH should always extend his remix.

[JimBagley]

[QUOTE=JimBagley;117901]If I was a Carpenter

Karen will indeed get me for this.

A "Hurting Each Other" megamix would now be appropriate.

[lovechild]

wow sexy mama lovin it...

[midnight johnny]

Carole....yes...AAMOF...I'll pop it on shortly for you...and Tony ...and Me......

[lovechild]

[QUOTE=lovechild;117906]

i suggest you call all occupants..

[JimBagley]

Can I request Calling All Occupants WITHOUT the alien introduction?

[midnight johnny]

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.....well, let's see if you like what I have already extended....

[midnight johnny]

Can I request Calling All Occupants WITHOUT the alien introduction?

Are we needing a Karen tribute? Is it time? How long has it been.....

[lovechild]

i will be happy just to hear Karens voice

[lovechild]

virgo here! lol

[midnight johnny]

i will be happy just to hear Karens voice

Uno momento, mon petite chou.....[[*smile)

[midnight johnny]

I wonder what signs the Andantes were...or are....

[Methuselah2]

Gosh, you are in Tops form. A man's REACH should always extend his remix.

[sophisticated_soul]

Excellent "No Matter What Sign You Are" mix, John. You bring out it's symphonic nature so well.:cool:

[midnight johnny]

virgo here! lol


Scorpio here!

[carole cucumber]

Wonder what signs Mary and Cindy wished they could show Berry when they were asked to lip-synch to so many backgrounds that they had not recorded.... just sayin.... a girl's allowed to wonder.
Miss Flo was a master of sign language, so some have said.

[carole cucumber]

An extended Carpenters' show is long overdue!

[Glenpwood]

I have Occupants on 45 without all the Alien intro. Wish Richard would open up the vault and give us all the original single mixes but he apparantly prefers to forever remix the back catalog.

[midnight johnny]

Gosh, you are in Tops form. A man's REACH should always extend his remix.


Thank you Bruce!!!

[Glenpwood]

That book that came out Little Girl Blue is an exceptional read, much more forthcoming than the heavily edited official Carpenters one Richard collaborated on in the early nineties....

[midnight johnny]

Excellent "No Matter What Sign You Are" mix, John. You bring out it's symphonic nature so well.:cool:


Thank you Joseph...it's so pretty back there behind all that astrological silliness....

[lovechild]

Thank you for tbeautiful Karensong and goodness now the Impressions! Awesome Johnny!

[carole cucumber]

Too bad Richard [[and I guess Herb) wouldn't allow someone of Harry, Andy or Georges caliber into the Carpenter vaults. I wonder what treasures still lie deep within.

[midnight johnny]

Thank you for tbeautiful Karensong and goodness now the Impressions! Awesome Johnny!


My pleasure Tone...and thanks for that backing track...so VERY much...that so is so important to me....

[JimBagley]

Thanks for the Jerry Butler megamix John. Gorgeous. Margie Joseph does a nice version of Strange I Still Love You as well.

[carole cucumber]

You know...since you've just played Heartless.......My ears are itching for and many could use some Shoe Leather Expressway

[Glenpwood]

Too bad Richard [[and I guess Herb) wouldn't allow someone of Harry, Andy or Georges caliber into the Carpenter vaults. I wonder what treasures still lie deep within.

Plenty, theres a list floating around the web from the A&M tape files that would double their catalog! Richard has a clause in his contract that he gets final say over any Carpenters product released and he doesn't feel a lot of it is good enough to release, although fan pestering has gotten things like Rainbow Connection released. Would love a HQ version of Love Making Love To You from her solo sessions to come out but knowing how much Richard dislikes the project as a whole we'll never get it.

Maybe we can convince Andy at least to find us some unreleased or alternate Captain & Tennille instead. I hear he's a fan. Universal has not done much with their catalog over the years in the states beyond the Song Of Joy LP on Hip-o.

[lovechild]

you are very welcome Johnny...

[Methuselah2]

Love your new HELPLESS. But now it's a ballad! Just kidding.

[sophisticated_soul]

"Helpless" is one of my favorite Tops song, and it benefits tremendously from being slowed down a bit, always thought it was a bit too fast. Excellent elongation as well!:cool:

[lovechild]

thanks and great job on Helpless!

[midnight johnny]

Thanks for the Jerry Butler megamix John. Gorgeous. Margie Joseph does a nice version of Strange I Still Love You as well.

Thank you so much, Jim...such a painfully beautiful song!!

[midnight johnny]

You know...since you've just played Heartless.......My ears are itching for and many could use some Shoe Leather Expressway

Now, Carole...how can I refuse "Shoe"'s? Thanks for the request!

[midnight johnny]

Bruce and Joseph and Tony...many, MANY thanks!!!!
