    thanks for an insight into the creative process Ray... ...did you do session work for producers such as George Kerr and Jerry Ross as well as your own productions....?......Vivian Copelands "Key in the mailbox" on D'Oro was produced by George Kerr...a similar version was recorded by Susan Phillips on All Platinum....(theres a clip on the sites Refosoul feature)...the male backing vocals sound like the Moments to me.......what do you think?...Cheers Jim
