Guest Gogs Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 Really good so far, lots that i've never heard before. Always thought that going by previous preferences that i would like more of the female versions but no. really love the Embers version of "It ain't necessary" But prefer the Eloise Law to Jerry Butler, which also surprised me. Keep them coming. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Weingarden Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Wasn't the point of this not just male vs. female versions of songs but male-point-of-view vs. female-point-of-view variations on the same song? Mal C. got it right in his contributions IMO....Like this: Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Lightsleeper Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Always loved these boy\girl answer records. Big favorite is Gene Chandler answers to Mary Wells with threw a lucky punch. Myself and my girl once recorded a mix of an hour or so of these records with her playing the girl records and myself playing the guy records.

Hmmm..pretty much a jobbing UK arranger with no notable hits to his name. Can't see why he'd get the call from New York, tbh! https://www.discogs.com/artist/335594-Harry-Roberts?filter_anv=0&subtype=Writing-Arrangement&type=Credits Edited June 2, 2019 by JoeSoap Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
