Thanks for choosing the stereo version of Kim's "You Hit Me Where It Hurt Me"

[carole cucumber]

I'm still convinced that's The Lewis Sisters with Wanda on this album cover!

Attachment 9886

Yeah, but who do you suppose the two girls riding them are in the photo? O.k. I'll go to the time-out corner for the comeback.

Thanks for playing the Shirelles' "Last Minute Miracle"...er, sorry, I mean Kim Weston's "You Hit Me Where It Hurt Me"

I will most always choose stereo...unless the mono is really rare or different from the stereo [[besides being stereo ...*grin)

[carole cucumber]

That instrumentation just flowed so perfectly after Reflections on the album. Perfect placement. In fact there was a certain feel/effect until 'In and Out Of Love'

George Kerr is the first name listed as composer on both versions. There must be quite a story there.
144 man ..what can you tell us?

[Methuselah2]

Carole - I wish I knew the answer to that one, too, but I haven't been the same since I saw the photo at the very top of this thread--particulary Mary's gray hosiery with those copper-colored shoes. That's art, and Mary did it. Beautiful.

I think it was just too good a tune to waste, so he rewrote the song when he left Motown.

[Methuselah2]

Now, Carole, I'm already anticipating your next question--but I have no idea if the pantyhose were control-top or not.

[144man]

Getting songs as good as Brenda Holloway's "I See A Rainbow" justified signing the Lewis Sisters. Were they really school teachers or was that just a publicity stunt?

Hard to know for sure...you know how Berry lies....

[carole cucumber]

Richard Tee is listed as arranger for both the Shirelle's Last Minute Miracle & Alice Clark's You Hit Me Right here It Hurt Me

A most enjoyable night, John.
The music was wonderfully RARE.
And the show was so WELL-DONE.
And fun!
And you can dance to it, too!
Many thanks.

It's strange how late at night the old eyes can play tricks on ya'.
Looking again at the initial photo that promoted this thread- and specifically the faces....there something Aretha-ish about Cindy and Florence LaRue Gordon-ish about Diana. But Tex still looks like Mary.

[144man]

It will be getting light soon, so it must be time for me to go to bed.

Great show, John.

[carole cucumber]

Meth,

What happened to the very colorful Fiesta Sisters?

[Methuselah2]

"Tex still looks like Mary"--Carole, you're killin' me!

[Methuselah2]

Meth,

Once you posted your copy, I thought that's the one.

Even the others that I left up I'll delete soon since attachments cut into the attachment allotments that we're all given.
