LatetotheParty Posted January 23, 2012 Author Share Posted January 23, 2012 Guess this was posted by Kirk last fall; oops, but what the heck; its worth a repeat! Wasn't this recorded just before the 'Berries debut LP? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marvin Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 The chorus on this always reminded me of "Friday, On My Mind" by the Easybeats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaspBen Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Great tune Jean! I did not see this last fall so thanks for posting again. I have never heard this song,love the deep rich sound of Eric's voice and then his famous scream at the end made my day. Monica Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LatetotheParty Posted January 23, 2012 Author Share Posted January 23, 2012 I found Eric's comment on this tune on Bernie's Marathon Man p. 371 Oh Tonight (Eric Carmen/Wally Bryson) [Raspberries, Raspberries Greatest Hits,Capitol 72435-24396-2-1] "Very derivative, but we had a lot of fun with it. It dates to theearliest days of Raspberries when we were trying to find out exactly who we were andwhat we wanted to be"This section of the book toward the end called "Musicial Rorschach" is my favorite part of the book where Eric comments on all this songs...Just another reason that Marathon Man is a must for a Eric/'Berries geek..if you missed out on the book, get it ebook... BERNIE..I LOVE THE BOOK!!! Jean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marathon mama Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 . . . love the deep rich sound of Eric's voice . . . Somewhere I read about him sounding like Elvis Presley in parts of this song. I agree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LC Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Bump to a way-back 'berries demo. Cute tune, though clearly (shall we say) developmental. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
