@sugarwolf@:

"Charles Fox's delicate yet hip music score, featuring flutes, harp, and flugelhorn set to a contemporary pop beat, provided the "love" ambiance which tied the stories together as a multifaceted romantic comedy each week."

Hi Gaylord. Impossible to understand Bob Crewe's musical evolution without understanding Charles Fox's and how they intersected and synergized.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:17pm
Gaylord Fields:

@dale: Stuart "Angel" Margolin also wrote songs for The Parade of "Sunshine Girl" fame. Perhaps I'll play one during this set, inspired by the connection.

i had to look that up. ashamed to say i never heard of it. that 'sunshine girl'compilation cd sounds interesting.
  5:27pm
P-90:

LAS was an unusual show for the number of segments that had their own individual scores. Most series at that time relied on a library of cues that would be reedited and reused in many episodes. Fox's constant supply of new scores was a big part of the show's "identity" with audiences. His stuff sounded "hip" (or at least, "contemporary") to the young demographic, but not too "rock" to alienate older potential viewers.

Given the supersaturated ubiquity of the Gee-tar - it's an accomplishment to sound distinctive - & it's a minor miracle our brains not only tolerate more of the thing - but we love it still.

Digging the selections. I can always handle hearing tunes that feature a 12 string Rickenbacker too! Thanks!

Now this is how a fuzz guitar should sound!

Real Nitty Gritty Tania:

@Ashley Morey: I totally agree
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:05pm
Gaylord Fields:

@ashley morey: It's fuzz + scratchy 45 that makes it sound so good.
  6:09pm
P-90:

"Fire Ball" is a great example of the "Fuzz Face" type of distortion. As opposed to the "Big Muff", "Distortion +", or "Tube Screamer" sounds.

Gaylord Fields:

@P-90: I like you. You're smart.

...oh - Fuzz Face is the saucer-shaped one Hendrix liked...

LOVE this diana dors. and i thought she only looked great.

P-90:

@RevRab, yes!, early on, then he was a huge Big Muff fan. btw: lots of Fuzz Face on that Diana Dors track too.
Avatar 6:17pm
Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

FF is - fuzzier (GaragePunkier, if you will) - & BigMuff is throatier & increases Gain more (Grunge~Metal) ?
Avatar 6:21pm
Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

@GF: That HelenShapiro tune reminds me a touch of Peter Berry and the Shake Set: "In Lonelier Days", which I wouldn't know except for your FakeBeatles blog...
  6:25pm
P-90:

@RevRab:
FF: that mid-sixties "buzzy bee" sound
Big Muff: thick but smooth, "violin"-style distortion, like late Hendrix or Clapton's "woman tone". Not "grindy" or "Marshall amp-y", that's the Tube Screamer sound; or "Heavy Metal-y", that's the TS or the ProCo Rat pedal sound. Broadly.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:26pm
Gaylord Fields:

@Revolution Rabbit Nov63: And I don't need to tell you that the Beatles wrote "Misery" for Helen. But you probably didn't know Helen wrote the song I played herself. She was clearly paying attention on the tour she shared with The Boys.

Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

I did need you to tell me that! Both youze!

Real Nitty Gritty Tania:

I love Helen. "Walking Back to Happiness" is a staple in my to-go 45 box.
  6:33pm
JakeGould:

What I like about Helen Shapiro is she existed in an era when someone said to themselves, “Self, a new Shapiro record is out!”
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:34pm
Gaylord Fields:

@Real Nitty Gritty Tania: I also LOVE that song! Fun fact: "Walking Back to Happiness" was her highest-charting U.S. single, at No. 100 for one week.
