Pat,
I noticed in the database that you list this song as mono on the Eric cd... it is actually in true stereo. Sony provided us the original multi-track tapes from the session. The opening intro might fool you, though. The center track only contains his lead vocal and the acoustic guitar, but at :13 seconds the drum track comes in on the left side, followed by the orchestra, and then the backing singers come in on the right side. I'm also very pleased to add that the song's original producer, John Flores, was very happy with this new stereo mix. I was proud of that because it's rare to get direct feedback for the "creator". :-) MM [edited to correct my left-right confusion :-] |

One of my favorite tracks on that Eric Records disc. I
would have liked to have seen the group's follow up single "After The Feeling Is Gone" also on that CD (I believe Lulu recorded the same song as well). ------------- Santi Paradoa Miami, Florida |

My commercial 45, confirmed as T-A 202, is mono, with deadwax of "BELL
9629", has a listed time of (2:25); but an actual time of (2:29). Mark, it is SO great to finally own this song on a great sounding CD, thanks to you and Eric Records! :) |

Many thanks, Paul. Of course I did. (I only wish I had that young Paul Haney
brain, instead of my old, "Model T Ford" Version!) :) I will go back and update my earlier post. |
