A few, such as "I Remember You" and "I've Told Every Little Star," credit the sources where I found them - they're here because I made changes, however minor. The vast majority of these songs are my own transcriptions and interpretations - but there are exceptions. (One such example is "Joanne" by Michael Nesmith - yeah, the guy from The Monkees.) Other songs (like "Maybe You'll Be There" by Jane Morgan, or the Glenn Miller instrumental "Cherokee") may be so obscure you have never have heard of them, much less actually ever heard them - they're just exceptionally cool songs, and great fun to play. Some of these songs are neither especially old nor classics. The same "Nobody else has 'em" reasoning applies to some female artists, too, such as Brenda Lee. But I didn't find much Frank Sinatra or Tony Bennett or Mel Torme or even Dean Martin stuff on the 'net that had chords, when I looked. That said.why this site? As a male singer, I have always sung along with male-singer songs. If you can, encourage more radio stations to play it, because there aren't all that many that do - and the buying public rarely buys anything they don't hear first, on the radio or elsewhere. And I encourage you to do exactly that, while you've still got the chance. So if you want to HEAR this music, you'll have to BUY the music - records, sheet music, CD's, whatever. You can't reproduce it from what I provide for you here - I can't give you a melody, and you'll find no MP3 or Midi files on this site, now or ever.

I'd like to clarify one important point, up front: the whole idea behind this site is to preserve the music it contains. And as of November 2005, to no one's surprise more than my own, there are now an even 1,200 of them here. They are also songs that are rarely found elsewhere on the internet, which is why I transcribed them in the first place. Nevertheless, the bulk of Hung on You is built upon the classic pop traditions of the '60s, one that placed emphasis on craft both behind the scenes and in front of the microphone, a value system that this compilation justly celebrates through its conspicuous lack of hits.Welcome to The Guitarguy's Golden Classics The songs in this collection are songs that I (as a fan) consider classics - most of them are, indeed, old classics.

Many familiar names fill out the 26 tracks - the Righteous Brothers, the Shirelles, Dion, the Drifters, all acts who had hits with Goffin & King songs - and even though there's a heavy dose of girl groups and dramatic Brill Building pop, there's also a bit of variety here, with the Tokens dipping their toe into psychedelia and Hearts and Flowers opting for cosmic folk-rock. The success of the two prior Goffin & King songbooks allows compiler Mick Patrick to dig deep into the songwriters' repertoire, selecting songs that weren't hits in fact, the only readily recognizable featured song is "That Old Sweet Roll (Hi-De-Ho)," here performed by Dusty Springfield in 1969 but also associated with Blood, Sweat & Tears. Hits aren't the order of the day on Hung on You, though. So This is How It Feels - The CountrymenĪ sequel to Ace's two previous Gerry Goffin & Carole King songbook collections - the first, Goffin & King: A Gerry Goffin & Carole King Song Collection 1961-1967, arrived in 2007, while Something Good: From the Goffin & King Songbook, came in 2012 - Hung on You: More from the Gerry Goffin & Carole King Songbook covers the same era as its predecessors: the '60s, when Goffin & King were reliable hitmakers and one of the few Brill Building teams to ease into the late '60s without a hitch. Sometime In the Morning - The American Breed Don't You Want To Love Me - Connie Stevens When My Little Girl is Smiling - The Drifters What a Sweet Thing That Was - The Shirelles Don't Let Me Stand In Your Way - Skeeter Davis That Old Sweet Roll (Hi-De-Ho) - Dusty Springfield
