Harrogatesoul Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 Being a softie for southern soul - Rick Hall / Dan Spence / Spooner Oldham / along with Wexler / Quin Ivy / Buddy Killen . For a truly stunning and evocative account of these days plus masses of soul info - an essential read is ' Say It One More Time For The Broken Hearted ' by Barney Hoskyns . You'll read it in one sitting I guarentee! ATB Rich https://dogbert.abebooks.com/servlet/Search...0&tn=broken&x=0
Dayo Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 What no mentions for the legend? Van McCoy. Yaaaaay!!!
Guest Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 it's a no contest Detroit's "Pied Piper" team did the finest soul productions can't think of anyone to touch them. john
Guest ZTSC Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 Pied Piper for sure . But what about the Harthon team Popcorn Wylie? And Hestor
Larsc Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 Mike Terry and also should mention McKinley Jackson
Soulsmith Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 The Pied Piper team? Teddy Randazzo? thats two to think about Being a bit of a thicko myself, can you tell me a little more about the Pied Piper Team? Thanks Col.
Chalky Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 Being a bit of a thicko myself, can you tell me a little more about the Pied Piper Team? Thanks Col. Pied Piper Productions/GWP was made up of Joe E.Hunter (musical director), producers Jack Ashford and Lorraine Chandler (also known as the writer E. Lewis) and arranger Andrew (Mike) Terry who needs no introduction for most of us. A good starting point, listen to the Hesitations LP Soul Superman and everything will become clear Col

Guest Paul Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 It should be noted that producers Gamble and Huff owe a huge debt to arrangers such as Bobby Martin & Tommy Bell ..plus all the musicians (Baker, Harris, Young etc) and engineers (Joe Tarsia etc) Many other Philly area tracks would have been nothing without the skills of arrangers such as Jimmy Wisner and Joe Renzetti. Most productions were big team efforts. Paul Mooney
Guest Paul Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 One of the best Harthon productions IMO..... Harthon relied heavily on the arrangements of Luther Randolph and (sometimes) Tommy Bell. Paul Mooney Clive Davis Clive Davis? ...some mistake, surely??? Paul Mooney
Guest Paul Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 Arrangers... Mike Terry, Tommy Bell, Bobby Martin, Luther Randolph, Jimmy Wisner, Joe Renzetti, James Carmichael, Sonny Sanders, Tom Tom Washington, Gene Page, Van McCoy, Richard Tee, Horace Ott, Bert Keyes, Robert Banks, Paul Griffin, Tony Camillo, Ed Bland, Paul Riser, Dale Warren, Paul Mooney
