What’s In A Name? Big HIT Songs, Big HIT Records!!!

3-16-tony-insta-article-5

Hello again everybody!!

This Saturday night, my special guest is my friend and songwriter, L. RUSELL BROWN, who will reveal who he and co-writer IRWIN LEVINE were writing about when they wrote “C’mon Marianne” for THE FOUR SEASONS! Who was “Marianne”? You will know the answer this Saturday night! He reveals who “GYPSY ROSE” was when he wrote “Say, Has Anybody Seen My Sweet Gypsy Rose?” with lyricist IRWIN LEVINE. AND he tells us who “Sally” is in the song and hit record “Who’s In The Strawberry Patch With Sally?”

Plus get this, we will finally know the answer to the question I’ve been asked over and over, again and again, and I never had an answer to….Was the song “Tie A Yellow Ribbon ‘Round The Ole Oak Tree” about a war veteran, or was it about a convicted prisoner coming home? And most of all, was it a true story?

Well, you and I will finally hear the answer to all of that, and we’ll hear it from the man who wrote the song “Tie A Yellow Ribbon ‘Round The Ole Oak Tree“, L. RUSSELL BROWN! Let’s face it, that alone deserves our ears! So, my friends, this is a DON’T MISS show! Oh and by the way, with all of that said, my playlist is hit after hit and I mean hit after hit! Songs that are about the names in the lyric, or songs that names are in the title or who are the title! I am not kidding, when I started putting together the playlist for the show this Saturday night, I could have done multiple shows of hits that mention a name or that are about the person named in the title…and you know now
I have even had my share of hits, playing the name game!

Thanks to my special friend and special guest, the brilliant award-winning songwriter, L. RUSSELL BROWN, who wrote golden million-sellers for us, TONY ORLANDO & DAWN. Truthfully ,If it were not for Larry Brown (L. Russell Brown) and his lyricist IRWIN LEVINE, myself, TELMA HOPKINS, and JOYCE VINCENT (“DAWN”) ,we would not have realized our dreams!!!

Thank you, Larry Brown And Irwin Levine ,we are now and forever grateful!
