    Was there ever an Overture at The Copa? Is there more closing applause/chatter?

    PS: I love The Andantes!

    They also mentioned Sunset [[Supremes Sing Country Western & Pop)

    Oh great! I didn't catch that one. But C&W and the Sam Cooke are my favorite of the concept LPs, so I'll look forward to it.

    Great Show!

    So glad I stayed up late and listened.

    Too bad I now have to wait until Amazon ships.

    Sounds like lots of good stuff coming down the line.

    Great show last night with George and his sidekick Andy or is it Andy and his sidekick George BTW I did not mean to offend the Andantes when I asked for a Diana Ross and the Supreme album without the Andantes, it's just the only reperesentation that we have without the Andantes are the live album. Again, great show. ALso John, you need to crank up your car and drive to the vaults since you have a fear of flying and help the fellows out, then you can become a sidekick LOL

He also said Berry was so rough on her that Gil would sometimes have to leave the rehearsal............anywaygreat job, boys!

    I think it was the other way around from everything I've read...Berry preferred From The Moment On, Gil and everyone else at Motown liked Happy Face.

    I caught the "Sunset" comment too. That got my attention. And I suppose finally getting "Funny Girl" on CD will be worth it.

    Of the concept albums that have not already had some form of "Expanded" treatment C&W is my favorite followed by Liverpool, Funny Girl and then Sam Cooke. The first two I have at least 6 songs from each album on my iPod and only Flo's "Good News" from Sam Cooke, nothing from Funny Girl even though I burned it to CD-R years ago.

    John, the show was great. Lots of interesting comments from Andy and George. Thanks to the three of you for an entertaining evening.

    Kenneth...............thanks for the synopsis of what is coming; I missed the show but it's great to know Baby It's Me, I Hear A Symphony, Funny Girl & C & W & Pop are coming. That's what I was reading through looking for. Thanks.

    It may have been, but both Gil and Harvey Fuqua told uit the same way. Gil told several stories about it, so I think it was how I said. Well, not stories, exactly, but "incidences."
