Dave, you brought in the best, thanks!
Wow, that change to the drum part was massive.
Wow...Cherish has a beautiful voice!
Im surprised how few comments there are on these great videos ! well done Dave and the gang, you really nail these vids and the content
Wow, Cherish has a beautiful voice! Deeper than what’s popular these days!
Tom Hemby played on Amy Grant's "Heart In Motion" album. Great guitar parts.
Wow who mastered the album? This recording sounds LEAPS & Bounds better than the finished product… Or am I crazy??
The two albums he produced with Donna Summer ("She works hard for the money" and "Cat's without claws") were sublime and still are.
nice track
The Jermaine Jackson session has to have been for "I Think It's Love," from his album "Precious Moments."
I seriously doubt that you read these Mr. Omartian. Almost 20 years ago your Brother in law, Larry introduced you to me at my Church, HARVEST BIBLE CHAPEL , Glen Ellyn, IL.
My name is Bob Mancini and we spoke for probably ten minutes or so. You were on
your way to Chicago to work with Peter Cetera on his new album.
It ended as one of the most embarrassing moments of my life because I handed
you a four song home made demo of one our best singers and I did it for her and
because I was the only one who was a part of the project as a songwriter and producer ,
and I was the only one involved who knew your work. I believe that's why Larry wanted
to introduce you to me.
Anyway, I always felt that you put the cd in the trash because people probably hand you
homemade TRASH all the time. I never expected to hear back from you but it would
have been helpful to get some sort of comment through Larry even if it was
something like "please don't introduce me to people who are looking to use me". I really
had no intention to use you and want to apologize if I came off that way when we were
chatting about your incredible career. My excuse is that , including myself, there were
four others urging me to give the demo to you. Again, it's been 20 years and I still feel
guilty for trying to use the brother in law of a friend. I pray that you and your family are doing well. bmancini777@yahoo.com BOB MANCINI
Thank You for your Encouraging Words!!
Great to see this guys together. Went to see what was released on this song from "Cherish Lee" on this song…oof…she changed. Sounds like a completely production. Not good. She should
have stayed with this version.
Great voice and beautiful rhythm track. To me there is too much presence to her vocal. If she was back a little more with maybe a room mic to give some space.
Michael Omartian was a fantastic keyboardist, but this music is incredibly boring. Also, autotune on the vocals sucks.
I agree that the music is somewhat boring, but I don't hear any Autotune. And my ear is finely tuned to detect it. Cherish's vocals are pure, and I don't hand out that compliment often.
Well, you work in Nashville, you’re going to work Country-Rock. :/
