Gee, Kerry - remind me to put you on the payroll! (Oh, that's right, we
don't have a payroll...otherwise the album would be done and out.)
Speaking of Oohs and Partridge Family...I was just working on keyboard
tracks today on the last batch of new Oohs songs intended for our new album,
and one song in particular is coming out v-e-r-y Partridge (Wurlitzer &
harpsichord parts) albeit the lead vocal will be closer to Brian Wilson
(with verse in baritone and chorus in soaring falsetto), and chances are
we'll balance the sweetness with some "sour" guitars. I even asked our
drummer to think of Hal Blaine when he came up with his part, so there ain't
no dissin' the Partridge Family records in the Llamalab!
Bless the Wrecking Crew & the Love Generation,
Brioohs
