I know you said it was about the song, not the singer, however, if it was sung by someone else, you may have had the same hurt feelings about the comment. Thanks for posting the wonderful article about Vikki Carr, and Thanks to "Bill earl for your kind remarks on Ms. Carr's behalf.<BR/>SleezyjoPattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05276556614647917254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28230378.post-41976095289231267102007-09-30T18:54:00.000-07:002007-09-30T18:54:00.000-07:00Carr's Liberty records followup to "He's A Rebel" ...Carr's Liberty records followup to "He's A Rebel" was called "I Got My Eye On You."

Spector<BR/>at Gold Star, Carr probably at<BR/>Liberty. Anyway, story goes<BR/>both producers were adamant about<BR/>getting it out first and that<BR/>would be the winner. <BR/>Spector won the battle of the hit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28230378.post-73349801359708724042007-09-29T21:24:00.000-07:002007-09-29T21:24:00.000-07:00Regarding HE'S A REBEL by Vikki carr.I just downlo...Regarding HE'S A REBEL by Vikki carr.<BR/>I just downloaded it and heard<BR/>if for the first time. It does<BR/>have great production values.<BR/>It is appealing. Give it a<BR/>80 for danceability. I agree<BR/>it's a mystery that this was<BR/>not a hit. It had Liberty behind<BR/>it. Then came Spector and that became a hit. I always loved the<BR/>Crystals version, never having heard<BR/>the Carr version. I guess the<BR/>Spector genius had something to<BR/>do with the sound this one had.<BR/>Spector songs are like little<BR/>"easter eggs"--you have to search<BR/>to see what the magic is. Even if<BR/>you can't define it, you still<BR/>like the "sound".

And it was SUPERIOR to the Crystals version, too! Vikki grew up in the very town that my wife and I currently live and own a townhouse...Rosemead CA. Again if you want to hear the DEFINITIVE version of "He's A Rebel" check out the Vikki Carr version. It SHOULD have been a hit!William F.
