Rick Cooper Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 According to Mick Patrick's sleeve notes to the Ace CD "Phil's spectre -A Wall of Soundalikes" , The Wall of Sound - "was the unlikely brainchild of two arch exponents of novelty pop.Reese Francis Clifford and Jan Davis." Clifford was Buzz Clifford who had a hit in 1961 with "Baby Sittin' Boogie", Davis was a songwriter. No info given on the group so could be a bunch of session musicians and singers.Originally released on Hollywood based Big Bird records Rick Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Pete S Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 gotta be him out of the righteous brothers? No that was the idea - make people think it was the Righteous brothers. I collect records like this, Spector soundalikes, and there are several that sound exactly like The RB's - Kane & Abel, Knickerbockers - Wishful thinking etc. 3 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
