06 Jan 03 - 01:22 AM (#859582) Subject: RE: Tune Req: Someone Is Looking For Someone Like You From: GUEST, Dale That's by Gail Davies, whose version I prefer above all others. I think I'd have a look around her site, http://www.gaildavies.com/ Sound clip here http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B000007NYT/qid=1041833702/sr=8-5/ref=sr_8_5/002-3957123-8821627?v=glance&s=music&n=507846 Another nice one is by Susan McCann. |

06 Jan 03 - 04:49 PM (#860085) Subject: RE: Tune Req: Someone Is Looking For Someone Like You From: Warsaw Ed Thank you so much, Guest Dale - the sound clip has just enough for me to devise a copy on MusicWrite. Maybe I'll try my first ABC Notation. Ed |
06 Jan 03 - 05:23 PM (#860104) Subject: RE: Tune Req: Someone Is Looking For Someone Like You From: GUEST, Dale BTMP, I had forgotten all about that one, and since I have virtually EVERYTHING ever done by the CG and consider myself one of their biggest fans, I shouldn't have. It's on Good As Gold, Sugar Hill 3734, 1983. Unfortunately, it is only available on cassette at the moment. I'll have to dig the vinyl out and give it a listen ~~ again. If you click on the streaming audio button on Gail Davies site, you'll get a 3:30 sampling of some of her songs, including Someone Is Looking For Someone Like You ~~ a little past the two minute mark. |
