Title: Re: Jack Nitzsche Post by: rb on May 21, 2006, 09:42:05 PM Try listening to "If My Car Could Only Talk" by Lou Christie, which Jack produced (and arranged, I would imagine) - really excellent, almost stunning.

Title: Re: Jack Nitzsche Post by: rb on May 22, 2006, 04:41:41 AM "Rumble" was pretty cool too. Interesting how when the original style of music he worked on fell out of favour, he didn't. Talented and versatile.

But I must agree that expecting to fly is a remarkable and unique piece of music....hauntingly beautiful.....it has a wonderful hypnotic, dreamy, narcotic effect on the listener....(in a good way). It really defies description. It has to be heard. Jack did arrangements for Philles records (the Spector Label) and in many ways is responsible for achieving the "wall of sound" effect the records are famous for. |
