I'm surprised to see San Jose on that CD considering the times I've heard her say how little she liked it.

Several weeks ago I read where Dionne flew up to Detroit to record a duet with Aretha and I assumed it was going to end up on "My Friends And Me". However, after reading the line-up of female artists featured on the CD, Aretha's name didn't appear on the Concord "preview". I'm hoping that this is merely an oversight and that Aretha will actually be performing on the CD. I also was hoping that Burt would play an integral part in the production of this CD ala Ron Isley-that would be just way cool! As far as part II of "My Friends And Me" I am hoping that it includes Chuck Jackson, Isaac Hayes, B.J. Thomas, and Tommy Hunt (who has fairly recent product).

Dionne did flew to Detroit but Aretha never showed up for the recording-session.
