JUNE – MONTH #6
“Stand By Me”

Ok, for June I’m heading back to the twilight zone. That would be the place when elements surrounding you arrange themselves to create a certain chemistry.. They surely only happen in fleeting moments.  I remember this particular moment at the old Hit Factory in NYC. We were cutting Album 3, James Taylor was across the street at A&R cutting JT, By that time we had a long history with all the Taylors, Liv and I being managed by Don Law for what was almost a decade for me. I asked Arnold McCuller and David Lasley to come over and grace our sessions. They accepted in between James sessions. We were all honored to have 2 of the greatest singers to ever grace anyones band.This was our homage to the great Ben E. King.”
