    Wheel of Hurt Liner Notes.Pdf

    o one quite had a N career to parallel Margaret Whiting’s. Most major stars of her genera- tion followed a pattern sim- ilar to the Great American Songbook itself: they had hit singles in their 20s and 30s, then made deeper and, gener- ally, more artistically profound albums in their 40s and 50s, and, by the time they were in their 60s and upwards, had become elder statesmen. With Whiting, it was if much of the middle section – Act II – was missing. She was revered, by younger singers especially, as something even more than an elder stateswoman, but she was a highly accessible, super friendly, incredibly down-to- earth living legend. I’ve often witnessed the look on a young singer’s face when she real- ized that Queen Margaret was in the house – it was, indeed, like a royal audience – but Maggie’s own pres- ence was never intimidating. She made it her business to know every singer in the jazz and cabaret rooms in New York even into the 21st century, and she inspired and encouraged all of them. Yet one wonders, how much did they actually know about Margaret Whiting? She was a major role model to them, but compared to comparable figures from the swing and early post- war era, like Jo Stafford or Peggy Lee, singers and indeed, listen- ers in the last few decades of Whiting’s life had relatively few opportunities to actually listen to the full expanse of Whiting’s recorded work. The young sing- ers who tried to impress her at Margaret, Jo Stafford, Peggy Lee Danny’s Skylight Room on West 46th Street undoubtedly had heard “My Ideal” or “Moonlight in Vermont,” but, unlike Stafford or Lee, there was remarkably little Maggie easily avail- able in the long-playing era, few greatest hits anthologies and even fewer original albums.

But in Paul Howes CDS it is said that Dusty's version was recorded before Barbra Acklin's, but released after that one. And no indication that Dusty penned the lyrics. I'm a little confused, and wonder is there any referance to confirm the song's origin of lyrics to Dusty ? Re: Soulful Strut / Am I The Same Girl by Brian Posted: Mon Nov 12, 2012 8:42 am The song was written by Eugene Record (producer of many hits for The Chi-lites) along with Sonny Sanders. It was first recorded by Barbara Acklin (who was Eugene's wife) in September 1968 but not issued immediately. The producer George Davis took the track, removed Barbara's voice and replaced it with a piano solo by Floyd Morris. It was issued in the USA in November 68 going on to reach the US top 3 pop. It was a number onerecord in Canada. It was credited to Young Holt Unlimited (which in fact were the session musicians). Barbara's version was then issued in February 1969, but only reached number 79 in the US pop chart (it did better in the R&B charts).
