I gotta say that these are all Alan Gordon tunes and I knew Alan and he was truly a great gentleman. He always wrote to me and sent tapes and such and just was a wonderful person to know. As I informed it at one time, in the great year of 1967, there was only 1 week on the entire year when one of his songs was not either in the Hot 100 or Top Lps chart!

↳ clarke @5:29
I really got a kick out of when Alan played the original demo of "Happy Together" and it had a tuba in it!
  5:34pm
clarke:

↳ WLSClark @5:33
so, not the version that he released in '74? i have that one somewhere, but can't remember.

WLSClark:

↳ clarke @5:33
It was thru Spectropop originally and from there grew as he became in lass good health. I would get letters and emails and respond and he did comedy skit things too. Lots of imagination!

↳ WLSClark @5:34
were you in the canyons, back then??
Avatar 5:35pm
WLSClark:

↳ clarke @5:34
Not that i know of. His son Chrsitopher keeps a tight hold on Alan's music, especially "happy Together". Dont think his demo ever got out. If it did, I'd like to know.
  5:36pm
clarke:

↳ WLSClark @5:35
yeah, his demos would be a wonderful find!

WLSClark:

↳ clarke @5:35
No, always in midwest. Maybe Andrew will play some demos next hours?
  5:37pm
clarke:

i'm just pondering all the demos and songs that went up in smoke = master tapes destroyed. sad.
Avatar 5:38pm
WLSClark:

↳ clarke @5:37
I dont think Alan had half his demos himself anymore, but lots and "Happy Together" was one he had.

clarke:

↳ WLSClark @5:37
funny how i just assumed that gordon lived in the canyons, ha ha.

His son has all Alan had and believe me, he is very protective and very loving of his dad's memory.

Great! This song has been recorded by so many artists, usually as "Me About you." Shoulda been a hit.
