	Dunhill Records Story
		Dunhill 4001 was by Shelley Fabares, a former Colpix artist, and 4002 was by Willie & the Wheels, another of Sloan and Barri's pseudonyms.
		The tape for Barry McGuire's recording of "California Dreamin'" was used for the Mamas and the Papas hit version of "California Dreamin'" by dumping McGuire's voice and adding lead vocals by the group members instead.
		Dunhill's biggest act, however, was Three Dog Night, a septet of three singing and four non-singing musicians, specializing in judicious and soulful rock, pop and R&B covers.

	THE GRASS ROOTS
		Sloan and Barri were contracted songwriters for Trousdale Music, the publishing arm of Dunhill Records, which wanted to cash in on the folk-rock boom of 1965.
		Dunhill asked Sloan and Barri to come up with this material, and a group alias under which they would release it.
		However, the rest of the group was offended when Fulton was told to record their debut single, a cover of Bob Dylan's "The Ballad of a Thin Man," backed by studio musicians.

		The record, "Honey Machine", casts the act as a comedy troupe which causes a furor in the band and they subsequently disown the song and Epic Records.
		Dunhill signs the act and by mid-October the band is whisked off to Los Angeles with their road manager, David McLeod, as sessions begin in Studio 3 at Western Recorders with engineer Chuck Britz and Dunhill staff producer Steve Barri instead of Cass Elliott.
		Recording continues for nearly 4 weeks and shortly thereafter, they group return to Toronto to appear on their own national CBC TV special called Our Kind Of Crowd which also features special guests Joni Mitchell and Richard Pryor.

	Golden Grass - The Grass Roots Fan Page - Bios - Barri
		That assessment is most clearly shown to be true when his records of the time, which were usually produced under the extraordinary sound supervision of engineer Phil Kaye, are transferred to CD today.
		Barri gave the group several more of Sloan's songs to record, which appeared on their Feelings and transitional Lovin' Things albums, but by that point Barri was the sole producer, and the group was being transmogrified into an entirely different-sounding outfit with the addition of horns and compositions in a rock/soul style.
		Dunhill Records was acquired by ABC Records in 1967, and Barri was assigned the position of Director of Artists and Repertoire (AandR) at the newly-amalgamated label.

	CMT.com : Steve Barri : Biography (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		When Adler co-founded the Dunhill Records label in 1965 with Jay L:asker, Barri and Sloan were a key part of his fledgling operation as songwriters, session musicians, and neophyte producers.
		They recorded a superb self-titled album under Barri's direction, but in that instance his guidance may have exacerbated a split within the group -- they split up when they were unable to agree on which aspect of their sound, as represented within their ranks or on the record, they would emphasize.
		Barri's record of hits was enviable well into the 1970's, and when ABC Records was dissolved after being sold to MCA in 1977, he was immediately snapped up by Warner Bros. Records, to head up its A&R department.

	Dunhill Records Story
		Dunhill had the dubious distinction of having three different album covers that had to be changed or censored.
		Dunhill issued singles by them in batches of four or five simultaneously at times, and several albums.
		On the idiosyncracy side, the catalog numbers for Three Dog Night's albums always ended in "8." All Dunhill tracks on stereo albums are thought to be stereo, with the exception of Three Dog Night's "Shambala," which has always been rechanneled, even on the "stereo" side of the promo 45.

		After a half hour or so, I came to understand that this garrulous gentleman worked for ABC Records and was inviting me out to Hollywood to observe a Steely Dan recording session, the object being to compose an eyewitness account of the proceedings for a posh European publication.
		Diener, now president of ABC Records, who informed me that the "guys" had specifically requested yours truly to write the liner notes for the new album and that a cassette copy of same would be forthcoming.
		When they made their recording debut in 1972, Steely Dan was more or less a conventional rock group comprised of six active members.

	Henry Gross - Bio
		Henry's recording career continued with albums on CBS Records with " Love is the Stuff" and on Capitol Records in 1981 with The Bobby Colomby produced LP, "What's in a Name".
		With songs recorded by artists as diverse as Judy Collins, Mary Travers, Cindy Lauper, Sonny Burgess, Ronnie Milsap and All The Kings Men, Henry, his wife Marilyn, a Realtor, and their four dogs and four cats live happily in lovely and creative Nashville Tennessee, pursuing their dreams.
		I believed after it was recorded for my RELEASE album, that it was destined to be a hit and lobbied hard for it to be the first single.

	Opinion of the Commission; Rel. No. 34-42359 / January 28, 2000
		In July 1996, the bankruptcy trustee for Meridian Dunhill petitioned the bankruptcy court to abandon the Firm's books and records located at The Records Center because of lack of funds in the estate to pay for their continued storage.
		Chiulli next contends that, when Meridian Dunhill filed its bankruptcy petition in January 1996, custody of its books and records was transferred to the bankruptcy trustee and Chiulli's obligations with respect to those records ceased.
		Chiulli also maintains that his refusal to assume responsibility for Meridian Dunhill's books and records after they were abandoned by the bankruptcy trustee was based on the advice of his counsel that his responsibility for the Firm's books and records ended when the Firm filed for bankruptcy and a trustee was appointed.

	Petula Clark.net - Spotlight on "Blue Lady"
		While she was in Nashville recording "Blue Lady," a death threat was received by the authorities against actress Hope Lange.
		Although Petula had short curly hair at the time of the "Blue Lady" recording, there was not much photography available from that era that fit the style of the Nashville recordings.
		So, images from the early 70s were utilized, which were only 4-5 year prior to the recordings and since the pictures had not been used for album art previously, everyone, including Petula, was pleased with the selections made.

	::: SOUL STRUT ::: REVIEWS
		The big hit off this record was Ain’t No Woman (Like The One I’ve Got), which has been interpreted by the likes of Jay Z and Too Short.
		Musically, Aretha was still recording with a mix of northern and southern musicians such as Spooner Oldham, Billy Preston, and Joe Farrell.
		The label had problems finding the right setting for her recording as they first flew her down to Alabama’s famed Muscle Shoals studio and then back to the Atlantic studio in New York City with the Muscle Shoals studio musicians in tow.

	Cigar Aficionado \| Archives \| Collectibles: Keeping 'em Lit
		Alfred Dunhill, the London-based company's founder, established a dictum that stated "It must be beautiful, it must be the best of its kind, and it must last." British royals, Winston Churchill, maharajas and other foreign dignitaries are among the customers listed in shop registers past and present.
		Another highly sought Dunhill is a 1938 boar's tusk table lighter pictured in the company's catalogue for that year, thought to be a one-of-a-kind item or a very limited edition.
		The standard chrome cases were made memorable by soldiers who engraved words, recorded itineraries and attached badges and souvenirs to them, customizing their Zippos and providing tidbits of military history as well.

	The Tams - Atlanta, GA - Official Website
		This was The Tams first national hit record, bringing them into the households of millions through a tremendous amount of airplay.
		Walkin' Dr. Bill - Officially recorded by "The Tams (with G.C. Cameron)," this was a duet with the former lead singer of The Spinners singing much of the lead.
		The final Tams hit in the UK was "My Baby Sure Can Shag." Unfortunately for The Tams, all of the songs released in England were under their original contract with Bill Lowrey; this meant that The Tams never received one penny of royalties for the millions of records they sold in the UK (and Europe).

	1970
		Biscuit was a term used in the recording industry for the acetates (records) that were created by the master stampers...
		That record was only good for a few plays before it got scratchy.
		In reality, you would only play it once or twice to test it for skips or any other oddities and then it was carefully viewed under a microscope (literally) and preserved to be put in a chemical bath which would harden and form a negative from it and all the record grooves it contained.

	The Gold Highway 61 Revisited CD
		The founder of the company, Marshall Blomstein, was the President of Island Records and of Ode Records and he formed this company, DCC Compact Classics, formerly Dunhill Compact Classics, in 1986, for the purpose of re-issuing things that had been long unavailable, kinda like Rhino Records but a little more, er, serious-minded.
		That means that the records were actually cut from a copy of the original master tapes.
		If they had tried to cut the record using the original tapes, the cutting stylus would not have been able to track all the information, so the cutting master usually would have the low end chopped off and the high end chopped off and the mid-range exaggerated.

	EMITT RHODES/ EMITT RHODES (1970)
		After recording a few demos, the quartet was signed to AandM, who quickly released their first single, “Live,” and watched it explode...at least locally.
		He recorded his first album, Emitt Rhodes, sold it to Dunhill Records in 1970 for only $5,000, and, remarkably, watched it soar into the top 30.
		But when anyone hears an Emitt Rhodes record for the first time, count on it: it's a sure bet they won't be able to figure it out, either.

		Written by Lou Reed, the song was originally recorded by The Velvet Underground featuring the vocals of Nico and this particular album has proved to be one of the finest from the New York based rock band.
		NOTES: Susanna covered this standard classic during the recording sessions of her self-titled disc in 1996 and released it as an unlisted bonus track for that album.
		Although it was written by Monkee man Michael Nesmith, the Monkees' version remained unreleased until 1990, Nesmith didn't record it until 1973, and Linda Rondstadt had a minor hit with it in 1968.

		Birtha was the second all-female band to win the opportunity to record an album for a major label.
		Even Playboy Magazine had esthetic problems with regard to the tastefulness of the ad campaign, refusing to print the slogan on match books when Birtha was booked to play at the then flourishing publishing empire's Playboy Club in Chicago.
		Produced by Steve Barri and Chris Barr and penned by Walter Becker and Donald Fagen of Steely Dan, the song may be the birth of a new era in chick rock.

		But in the case of Croce, whose early exposure had threatened to typecast him as one of the tough guys he sang about, the fans are belatedly discovering a new and gentler Jim in their acclaim for such whimsical and introspective sleepers as Time in a Bottle.
		On jukeboxes, radio and records around the world, Croce's Time in a Bottle stands as his own best epitaph: But there never seems to be enough time/ To do the things you want to do/ Once you find them/ I've looked around enough to know.
		The record failed to catch fire so Jim and Ingrid headed back to NYC and Jim found a job with an excavating contractor.
