THE MAN FROM THE DINERS' CLUB - STEVE LAWRENCE - REMASTERED AUDIO
Here's STEVE LAWRENCE singing the title song of
THE MAN FROM THE DINERS' CLUB
Written by Steve himself, and Johnny Lehmann.
In the film, this song is played as part of the opening credits.... it goes straight from the Columbia Pictures logo and underscoring, right into the song, and then at the end, instead of there being a proper finish, it blends right into the underscoring of the first scene of the movie...
There exists a 'promo' red vinyl record * ("not for resale), but.........as far as I am aware, there was no official commercial release of the isolated song - so I created an ending and remastered the audio - so that it can finally stand alone as a '"single release'"..
*(Steve and Johnny are not credited on the vinyl promo, nor is the arranger of this swingin' orchestration........ hopefully one day the orchestrater will come to light - they are always the unsung heroes of these recordings.)
The Man from the Diners' Club - a 1963 comedy film starring Danny Kaye, directed by Frank Tashlin.
Produced by Ampersand and Dena Productions and released by Columbia Pictures.

GALE GORDON Takes The Stage

In 1984, with his television years (presumably) behind him, the Great GALE GORDON arrived in Toronto to star in a stage production of ‘Norman, Is That You?’…. Here are a few excerpts from the show - that demonstrate Gale doing what he does best, (with the audience willingly along for the very enjoyable ride.) At 78 years old, able bodied and still at the top of his game, Gale had been performin...

Back in 1979, while still in High School, I was 17 years old, and fortunate to secure a guest spot on a Canadian Broadcasting Corporation program called “Class Of ’79”.

I was thrilled to have the opportunity to launch wha...

THE FARAWAY PART OF TOWN In the mid 90's, I did a concert, in which I included this wonderful song.... I could never understand how it had somehow slipped into obscurity, having been written by the incomparable Andre Previn, and introduced by none other than Judy Garland in the film Pepe. This is both the rehearsal (and impressively, the accompanist's first sight read of the piece), and then, t...

Although Steve and Eydie never actually recorded this wonderful song as a studio duet, they did both record their own versions of it. Through a few pitch and tempo adjustments, it was possible to successfully superimpose their two separate recordings. The result is a pretty convincing facsimile of what could, and would have been a stellar collaboration. Interestingly, this song was actually wri...

    The theme from the 1976 NBC/Norman Lear short-lived sitcom "The Dumplings" titled "GOOD THINGS COME IN PAIRS" was written, scored and conducted by the legend Billy Goldenberg and lyrics by his partners Alan and Marilyn Bergman and performed by Steve Lawrence, this was a great sitcom theme song environment.

    I only recently started watching Ghosts UK, as I only knew the US version ( and have been a fan of same since day one). I finally got to see the first two seasons available to me here, and this episode hit me hard. The voices of all these disparate folk, all from different times (and may as well say places, as the world that Robin knew might as well be Middle Earth for all that it resembles the here and now), and yet, the song is old enough that they all learned it by heart and they heard it sung so many times, they could harmonize. And the harmony from all these people makes you think that for just a few minutes, the world could be in sync for once. And her living family can't hear it, but they can feel her love and see a little glimpse of why she loves the song. A window of understanding even if through a glass darkly. Damn that hits hard this year.

      This scene in the show seems to have hit a universal nerve with viewers.... the relationship the characters have created with both Alison, and the viewers themselves just seems to come together here - and people all over the world have been profoundly touched... It is such a brief scene - (thus my effort to enhance and prolong it just that slight bit longer), but it has had a profound impact on so many. Kudos to the creators and director, who's choices were perfect.

    I loved how the show wrapped up in season 5 and I definitely got emotional seeing the show come to a close on Christmas but there's something different about this episode. Maybe its because the focus isn't about the sadness from something ending but the unspoken feeling of togetherness shared even in times of solitude. I think that this episode has a special place in so many fans hearts because of this scene.

    The Ultimate Bacharach/David Medley LYRICS Magic Moments, memories we’ve been sharing, Magic Moments, when two hearts are caring, Time can’t erase, the memory of, These Magic Moments, filled with love…….. * Blue On Blue, heartache on heartache, Blue On Blue Now that we are through. Blue On Blue, heartache on heartache Now I find I can’t, get over losing you………. * If you see me walking down the street, and I start to cry each time we meet. Walk On By, Walk On By, make believe, that you don’t see the tears, just let me grieve, in private for each time I see you, I break down and cry, so Walk On By I just can’t get over losing you, and so if I seem broken and blue Walk On By, Walk On By, foolish pride, that’s all that I have left, So let me hide, in private for each time I see you, I break down and cry, So Walk On By, just Walk On By * Living Together Growing Together, just being together, that’s where it starts, three loving hearts. All pulling together, working together, just building together. That makes you strong. If things go wrong, we’ll still get along somehow, Living and growing, together……. * What’s it all about Alphie? Is it just for the moment we live What’s it all about, when you sort it out Alphie? Are me meant to take more than we give? As sure as I believe, there’s a heaven above Alphie. I know there’s something much more, something even non believers, can believe in…….. * The Look Of Love, is in your eyes, the look your smile can’t disguise I can hardly wait to hold you, feel my arms around you, How long I have waited, waited just to touch you, now that I have found you………. * Mother told me always to follow the golden rule, And she said it’s really a sin to be mean and cruel So be careful if you’re untrue, angels up in heaven are looking at you. You’ll Never Get To Heaven if you break my heart. So be very careful not to make us part, You won’t get to heaven if you break my heart, If you break my heart…… * What’s New Pussy Cat, What’s New Pussy Cat Pussy cat, pussy cat I love you, yes I do You and your pussy cat smile………. * Wishin’ And Hopin’ and thinkin’ and prayin’ Plannin’ and dreamin’ each night of his charms It won’t get you into his arms So if you’re lookin’ to find love, you can share All you gotta do it hold him and kiss him and squeeze him and love him. Yeah, just do it, and after you do you will be his……… * Anyone who ever loved, could look at me and know that I love you. Knowing I love you. So, Anyone Who Had A Heart could take me in his arms and love me too. You couldn’t really have a heart and hurt me, like you hurt me and be so untrue. Anyone Who Had A Heart would love me too Anyone Who Had A Heart would surely take me in his arms and always love me, why won’t you………. * If you really love him, and there’s nothing I can do Don’t try to spare my feelings, just tell me that we’re through And Make It Easy On Yourself, Make It Easy On Yourself ‘Cause breaking up, is so very hard to do ‘Cause breaking up, is so very hard to do….. * Hey little girl, comb your hair, fix your make up, soon he will open the door Don’t think because there’s a ring on your finger, you needn’t try anymore, For wives should always be lovers too, run to his arms the moment he comes home to you He’s almost here. Dim all the lights, pour the wine, start the music, time to get ready for love….. * What The World Needs Now is love sweet love It’s the only thing that there’s much too little of What The World Needs Now is love sweet love No not just for some, but for everyone Lord we don’t need another mountain We have mountains and hillsides enough to climb We have oceans and rivers enough to cross, Enough to last, till the end of time What The World Needs Now is love sweet love It’s the only thing that there’s much too little of What The World Needs Now is love sweet love What The World Needs Now is love sweet love…… * You are from another part of the world, you had to go back a while and then You said you soon would return again. I’m waiting here like I promised to I’m waiting here, but where are you? Trains And Boats And Planes took you away, but every time I see them I pray And if my prayers can cross the sea, the trains and the boats and planes Will bring you back, back home to me…… * Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head But just like the guy whose feet are too big for his bed, nothin’ seems to fit Those raindrops keep fallin' on my head they keep fallin’ But there’s one thing I know, the blues they sent to meet me won’t defeat me It won’t be long, till happiness steps up to greet me Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head But that doesn’t mean my eyes will soon be turning red Cryin's not for me, cause I’m never gonna stop the rain by complainin' Because I’m free, nothings worrying’ me……… * Do You Know The Way To San Jose I’ve been away so long I may go wrong and lose my way Do You Know The Way To San Jose I’m going back to find some peace of mind in San Jose L.A. is a great big freeway, put a hundred down and buy a car In a week, maybe two they’ll make you a star Weeks turn into years how quick they pass And all those stars that never were, are parking cars and pumping gas Do You Know The Way To San Jose You can really breathe in San Jose They’ve got a lot of space, there’ll be a place where I can stay I was born and raised in San Jose, I’m going back to find some peace of mind in San Jose Fame and fortune is a magnet, it can pull you far away from home With a dream in your heart, you’re never alone, dreams turn into dust and blow away And there you are without a friend, you pack your car and drive away I’ve got lots of friends in San Jose….Do you know the way to San Jose……… * You see this guy, This Guy’s In Love With You Yes I’m in love, who looks at you the way I do Tell me now is it so, don’t let me be the last to know, My hands are shaking, don’t let my heart keep breaking, ‘cause I need your love, I want your love Say you’re in love, in love with this guy, if not I’ll just die….. * What do you get when you fall in love, a guy with a pin to burst your bubble That’s what you get for all your trouble, I’ll Never Fall In Love Again Don’t tell me what it’s all about, ‘cause I’ve been there and I’m glad I’m out Out of those chains. those chains that bind you, that is why, I’m here to remind you What do you get when you fall in love, you only get lies and pain and sorrow So for at least, until tomorrow I’ll Never Fall In Love Again, I’ll never fall in love…… * The moment I wake up, before I put on my makeup I Say A Little Prayer For You While combing my hair now, and wondering what dress to wear now I Say A Little Prayer For You Forever and ever, you’ll stay in my heart and how I’ll love you For ever and ever, we never will part, oh how I’ll love you Together together, that’s how it must be - to live without you would only bring heartbreak for me * Why do birds suddenly appear, every time you are near Just like me, they long to be close to you On the day that you were born, the angels got together And decided to create a dream come true so they sprinkled moon dust in your hair And starlight in your eyes so blue. That is why all the boys in town, follow you all around Just like me, they long to be, Close To You * I walk along the city streets you used to walk along with me And every step I take, recalls how much in love we used to be Oh how can I forget you, when there is Always Something There To Remind Me Always Something There To Remind Me I was born to love you, and I will never be free And if you find you miss the sweet and tender love we used to share Just come back to the places where we used to go, and I’ll be there Oh how can I forget you, when there is Always Something There To Remind Me Always Something There To Remind Me …..Always Something There To Remind Me Burt Bacharach…..
