Peggy Lee 'My Rock And Foundation'

For me it's a "toss-up" between Bob Hilliard and Elvis Costello.

Farewell to a great songwriter performer and singer....Lamont Dozier R.I.P.

A song Lamont co-wrote, arranged and produced with Brian and Eddie Holland.
Quite possibly the greatest Motown single ever made....

My first recollection of David Shire was through his music for films....

Henry, welcome to the forum and thank you for your version of the song....really enjoyed it !

Can anyone help ?

Blair,thanks for posting.

Paul,
Thank you for your painstaking effort on this one.
BTW do Elvis Costello and Ed Ames qualify....I'm sure there may be more ?

I also remember Ronnie Carroll and "The Lovely" Aimi MacDonald producing a 'Promises, Promises' album.

Very best wishes to Brian on his 80th birthday....one of pop's true "odd-ball" geniuses !

Burt and Traincha....work in progress.

Happy 94th Mr B !
(I wonder if Burt reads any of these messages on here ?)
