I have a bud who knows Michael Masser quite well. He told me how one day Masser invited him over to hear something fantastic. He played him Greatest Love of All. It was already #1. My bud said, "hey I know this song - what are you talking about?" Masser said he had been remixing it for a week and its now almost perfect. I've heard he is quite the perfectionist, but I can see using different voices. Barbara doing the speaking on He's 17. I was beginning to think it was Gladys, but Andy doesn't make things up or answer if he is not certain, so I'm convinced.
