Hi Y'all,

Does anyone know the R & B style 'It could have been me' track that appears on the 1965 film soundtrack to 'Who killed Teddy Bear'?

It's a driving uptempo R & B style track, it's during the scene where Sal Mineo is dancing with Julie Prowse.

Many thanks in advance

Simon

P.S. There's a clip on youtube if anyone wants to see it.

No, but the theme song was the A side of Leslie Uggams "Don't you even care".

The publicity blurb for the film said it all ............

" A New York City nightclub disk jockey receives obscene phone calls from a sexual psychopath .

A vice detective is obsessed with the case .

A pornography-addicted busboy is obsessed with the girl .

The busboy's bizarre sister is obsessed with the past .

Where did all these obsessions begin ? "

I have trailed through various sites , in an attempt to see if I can come up with any info on / for the music on the soundtrack , but as yet I am still searching .

If and when I come up with anything , I will both PM you and post it on this thread .

One thing I did find - the music for " HKTB " is credited to the notable composer and arranger , Charles Calello ( credits include amongst many The Toys " A Lover's Concerto " ) .........

Sal Mineo was murdered in 1972 when he disturbed a burglary at his home.

Tried to get hold of a cue sheet, but doesn't seem avaliable. There is a song called 'It could have been me' written by Howard Greenfield/Barry Mann (Brill building writers) that could be it? Best way it to get the dvd.

:g: Well as far as I can make out it was written by the Four Seasons' Bob Gaudio & Al Kasha. Some of the soundtrack was those two with the assistance of Charles Callelo.

Singer could be Al Kasha, previously known as Billy Casher of the 4-Evers, butI can't find a solo voice-clip to compare.

My best guess would be that it's sung by Sal Mineo himself, as the vocals are a bit weak (like much of his stuff).

Charles Calello was a member of The Four Lovers , who became The Four Seasons ........
