It's a shame that John and Stevie couldn't come up with an original sound instead, had to borrow from Jamiroquai. :)]]> Sun, 20 Mar 2022 08:37:19 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4460&PID=60513&title=john-valentianything-you-want#60513 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4460&PID=60512&title=john-valentianything-you-want#60512 Author: MPH711

His group prior to being solo was called Puzzle. (At that time he used a
different last name). They sounded much like Chicago. It was strange
because they were on Motown. Check out songs like You Make Me
Happy, On With the Show, Brand New World and Lady. All got airplay in
Chicago on WBBM-FM in the 70’s.

P-Vine Records specializes in blues and obscure R&B music reissues. This type material is their specialty. ]]> Sat, 30 Jun 2012 05:23:13 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4460&PID=34530&title=john-valentianything-you-want#34530 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4460&PID=34506&title=john-valentianything-you-want#34506 Author: musicmanatl

Frank, it's been awhile since I bought it, but I'm 99% sure I did buy it through
Amazon. As I recall, I did pay at least $35 bucks for it. I'm a Top 40
completion-ist, and it wasn't anywhere else on CD, so I just decided to pay
the premium price for it. ]]> Thu, 21 Jun 2012 19:15:09 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4460&PID=34505&title=john-valentianything-you-want#34505 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4460&PID=34504&title=john-valentianything-you-want#34504 Author: musicmanatl

Hey there - this mp3 came up on my iPod yesterday so I thought I'd check the history of it on the chat board. Jimct, did you order your CD from Amazon or via another route? It's available on Amazon but it's about $40. I've always loved that single and my mp3 was made from it, but the sound quality is not great. (I don't have the technical skills of most of you here!) Thanks.

The LP track of the "Anything You Want" has (3:21) of the actual running time, the listed Time is "3:16" on the record labe. (The LP title "Anything You Want" by "JOHN VALENTI" Ariola America ST 50012).

Although "P-Vine Records" is an indies label in Japan. Those CDs are distributed by one of the major labels "BMG".

I'll have to see if I have that 45 and dig it out if I do. I don't even know how the song goes. I didn't know it wasn't on any US CD - because of it being one of those top 40 hits that are not listed in the database/books.]]> Sat, 27 Dec 2008 10:22:15 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4460&PID=20213&title=john-valentianything-you-want#20213
