Both Bob Thiele and George David Weiss enjoyed long,
distinguished careers as jazz songwriters and producers. During the '60s, Thiele was the lead producer at Impulse Records.
Weiss, primarily a songwriter, is also responsible for the Elvis Presley hit
"Can't Help Falling in Love." As for the mysterious George Douglas, sometimes
credited as G. Douglas, we were unable to find any biographical details.
According to the Satchography, "What a
Wonderful World" was first recorded on August 16, 1967, in New York City. It
was a number one hit in Britain on its release in 1968, but America wouldn't really
discover the song until it was featured in the film "Good Morning, Vietnam" some
20 years later ! http://ask.yahoo.com/ask/20030804.html

Gary Geld, composer, b: Paterson, NJ, USA. Oct 18, 1935
This composer worked with Lyricist Peter Udell, writing songs for such Broadway musicals
as Angel (1978 - Book by Ketti Frings; based on book"Look Homeward Angel"
by Thomas Wolfe), Purlie (1970 - Book by Ossie Davis), Shenandoah (1975 and
revival 1989), Comin' Uptown (1979), and Amen Corner (1983) ( b.
Lyricist Peter Udell worked with
several composers including Hoagy Carmichael, Gary Geld, Tommy Goodman, and Lee Pockriss,
before forming a team with Gary Geld, in the 1950's. They went on
to to produce independent Rhythm and Blues hit songs before turning to the Broadway stage.
Music publishers were losing their clout (influence) at
that time, so Udell and Geld formed an independent record/publishing company called
'Pogo Productions', and signed some rhythm and blues singers, among which were
Jackie Wilson and Brian Hyland. Then the Beatles came along......(an event that signaled the end of the 'Pop'
song era, that had swept the world from the 1900's to the 1960's).

(originally recorded (or also) by) = Elton John
This is the first attempt to consolidate all of Sir Elton's hit
singles, from three labels, in one collection. It once would've required at least four CDs
to own the best stuff here. Many think the legendary performer was at his best in the
early to mid-'70s, and the incredible string of singles that ran from 1970's "Your
Song" through 1977's "Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word" remains mighty
impressive. But in retrospect, as they're presented here, '80s hits like "I'm Still
Standing" and "Sad Songs" add much to an already amazing legacy.

Polnareff
iMichel
Polnareff is one of the French music scenes more unconventional figures.
This talented singer/songwriter, who has spent his entire life swimming against the tide,
has experienced a rollercoaster of ups and downs in the course of his long career. He has
earnt a famous reputation for his wildly non-conformist lifestyle, but also made a name
for himself with his legendary melodies.
Michel Polnareff was born in the Lot et Garonne region on 3 July 1944. His parents had
fled to the French countryside during the war but returned to the capital shortly after
Michels birth. Young Michel grew up in Paris in a very artistic environment. His
father, Leib Polnareff, was a musician who worked with some of the top stars on the French
music scene (including Edith Piaf and the Compagnons de la chanson) under
his stage name Léo Poll. Michels Breton mother, Simone Lane, was a former dancer.
Michel was surrounded by music from an early age, his father introducing him to the
classical composers while his mother, Simone, would play her collection of Gershwin and
Cole Porter songs. Michel soon turned into something of a child prodigy, learning to play
the piano at the tender age of 5 and going on to become an extremely talented young
musician. Indeed, at 11 and a half years old, he won one of the top awards at the Paris
Conservatoire. Young Michel also proved to be an extremely creative composer and one of
his greatest passions during his teenage years was to write his own jazz orchestrations
for famous classical pieces....... continue at http://www.atomic.de/French%20artists/polnareff.html

In some ways James Horner (composer of
Titanic melody) may be compared to Jerry Goldsmith, sharing
his ability to turn his hand to many different types of film with relative ease, and of
course they share an association with the Star Trek franchise having both penned more than
one Trek movie. Whereas Goldsmith studied in the US, Horner studied at the Royal College
of Music in London before moving to Hollywood, which has kept him in steady emplyment ever
since.........click to continue ==> HERE

Europe (Epic)
Entry in charts: 03.1987 (Rang 10) " maybe we'll meet again somewhere again...
" very good ballad.......
This album is what 80's music ia all about. Strong vocals, screaching guitars, and
synthesizers. This was really the only BIG album Europe had but what a way to go. The
Final Countdown is still played at countless sporting events. The ballad Carrie is a
classic 80s ballad. Songs also off the album worth mentioning are, Cherokee and Rock the
Night. Both strong singles. Sometimes compared to Bon Jovi the only resemblance is the
hair. You could go and get Europes greatest hits CD but as far as I am concerned this is
it. This CD has been said to saound like everything else produced from the 80's but it's
more like everything else was produced to sound like this.
A história do Europe começou em 1979, na Suécia, quando Joey Tempest formou um
grupo chamado "Force". Um ano depois, o Force gravou sua primeiro demo-tape.
Até então, a banda consistia em Joey Tempest(vocals), John Norum(guitars), Peter
Olsson(bass) e Tony Reno(drums). Mesmo sendo talentosos, a demo-tape não obteve uma
resposta positiva das gravadoras e após um ano de esforços, Peter Olsson decide deixar a
banda e é substituído por John Leven no baixo. Então a persistência venceu e em 1982,
o Force obtém a primeira grande oportunidade, conquistando talento e contestação dentro
do rock com a gravação de seu primeiro LP.......
Europe disbanded in 1993.

The Philips
producer Pierre Sbarro decided to put Aphrodite's Child to test. He told them he wanted to record
with them an adaptation of a popular canon by Pachelbel, (a 17th-century
organist and composer). The three accepted the challenge and tackled it forthwith. The
result was "Rain and Tears," heard first on radio in 1968, it was climbing the French hit parade within a few days, and the English and
American charts within a few weeks. One of them, Vangelis Papathanassiou, was responsible
for the arrangement. The words were written by a frenchman, Boris Bergman.

(originally recorded (or also) by) = The animals
Published by Warner Brothers. (WB.4701HSMX) After
playing that haunting organ (solo) in "House of the Rising Sun," Alan
Price went solo and carved himself a niche (in England, at least) as a pop craftsman. For
many, his most enduring contribution has been this soundtrack to Lindsay Anderson's
allegorical 1973 film about a coffee salesman. Price's characteristic keyboard flourishes
are all over tracks like "Pastoral" and "Arrival," while the biting
wit of "Poor People" and "Sell Sell" never once overshadows the innate
tunefulness of the songs. Even if you've never seen the movie, Price's delightful and
memorable score is highly recommended. --Dan Epstein
I still remember snatches at Baptist
churches with my parents and now I only remember Alan's lines, thankfully.

13 Feelings
Composer(s), autor(es)= Morris
Albert e Louis Gaste.
Revista ISTOÉ Você enfrentou um processo de plágio do
compositor francês Louis Gaste e, desde 1987, divide os direitos de Feelings com
ele. Como isso te afetou?
Morris Todos nós (compositores) vivemos esse problema, o George Harrison,
o Roberto Carlos, todo mundo tem esse problema. Quase todo artista que alcança o sucesso
encontra alguém pelo caminho dizendo que o filho é dele. Às vezes o golpe dá certo,
às vezes não dá. O George Harrison perdeu My sweet Lord (até ele). Isso
acontece. Hoje metade do que eu ganho com a música vai para esse sujeito que nunca vi na
vida. O diabo é que existe mesmo semelhança, notas que se repetem, daí ele alegou
similaridade. Mas não copiei ninguém. No fundo é uma coisa inútil, um fato que
aconteceu para a mídia, mas o público só reconhece a mim. Feelings será
sempre Feelings. E Morris, sempre Morris.

Albert, Frank Sinatra, depois Johnny Mathis, Andy Williams, Dionne
Warwick, as orquestras de Paul Mauriat, Ray Conniff e Percy Faith.......descobriu-se
agora, até Elvis Presley emprestou sua voz à canção....A gravação inédita do rei
será lançada no fim do ano em um CD de memórias, justamente no ano em que Feelings celebra
30 anos.
Morris Albert, (n 1951) hoje com 53 anos , nascido Maurício Alberto
Kaiserman, montou 2 bandas na decada d 60, The Hangmen, com a qual gravou um LP e se
apresentava no Canecão, no Rio de Janeiro. O LP foi gravado e lançado em 1967, com
repertório que mesclava hits do rock internacional e sucessos da Jovem Guarda. No
repertório estão 'Hangmen' (da banda), 'I'm a Believer, Black
is Black, 'Coração de Papel' e 'Pensando Nela', entre outras.
Um pouco depois, com fim do Hangmen, Albert criou o grupo The Thunders,
também de vida curta na cena carioca. No seu LP solo de estréia,
no
longínquo 1973,
lançou Feelings. q emplacou na trilha da novela
'Corrida do Ouro', da Rede Globo, vendendo cerca de 300 mil cópias do compacto
sinmples. A música ganhou muitas versões, inicialmente na América Latina, e
posteriormente no mundo inteiro. http://www.senhorf.com.br/sf3vs/secreta/textos/hangmen.htm
Morris
, autor de Feelings, música que o tornou famoso no Exterior,
Morris Albert é o brasileiro que mais vendeu discos no mundo: 160 milhões de
cópias ! Feelings compôs para uma mulher pública
casada ....Eu compus Feelings assim, disse ele a ISTO É= eu estava sozinho, chovia
muito, eu não conseguia dormir. A letra veio de uma vez, direto em inglês.. Pus no lado
B, nunca pensei que fosse explodir no mundo inteiro.....chegou logo ao topo da Billboard
nos Estados Unidos, ficou no topo das paradas em 52 países do mundo. Eu disse
a Sinatra q eu nunca conseguia evitar o nervosismo antes d showa. Ele me disse=
"CONSERVE seu nervosismo, porque no dia em que você não se sentir mais nervoso no
palco, você acabou...." O Elvis eu conheci quando estava me
mudando para Los Angeles, lembro que ele queria me conhecer e ficou me esperando no
escritório do meu empresário. Saber agora que Elvis gravou Feelings foi uma
surpresa genial. O maior problema que o artista enfrenta
hoje é poder chegar até o público. (Divulgação)...
ISTOÉ
Você enfrentou um processo do compositor francês Louis Gaste acusando-o d ter
plagiado a musica "Pour toi" dele, q apareceu num fulme francês d 1957.
Desde 1987 vc divide os direitos de Feelings com ele. Como isso te afetou?
Morris Todos nós compositores vivemos esse problema, o George Harrison, o
Roberto Carlos..... Quase todo artista que alcança o sucesso encontra alguém pelo
caminho dizendo que o filho é dele, alguém pra se aproveitar. Às vezes o golpe
dá certo, às vezes não. O George Harrison perdeu My sweet Lord, logo ele!
Hoje metade do que eu ganho com a música vai para esse sujeito que
nunca vi na vida. (o site songfacts diz q é 88%)
(http://www.songfacts.com/detail.lasso?id=2186). O problema é que existe mesmo
semelhança, notas que se repetem ... De vez em quando cruzo
com alguém que me pergunta: "quando você vai fazer outro Feelings? "
realmente é uma cruz. Essa cobrança foi um fardo por um tempo ...ISTOÉ
O que pretende mostrar no seu novo CD, Moods? As pessoas vão ouvir
velhas canções como se fosse pela primeira vez. só coisas boas.
Estou na Itália há 7 anos. Escolhi a Itália porq me sinto mais
perto do Brasil.
