Free Music Review: The Lost 1978 recordings
Hit: 5 Stars

I was fortunate enough to hear this recording in 1978 when Rick first recorded it. Kim Carnes sings background on many of the tracks. They sound excellent together!! (I also love Kim, and have been her fan ever since first hearing this compilation in 1978.) Rick told me about six months or more ago that the song "Solitary One" he wrote for me. For that, I am VERY happy... and FINALLY get to hear it again in its original form, the way I heard it in 1978 when I was with Rick at Sound City in Van Nuys. I am looking forward to having it arrive in the mail any day now... hopefully it won't be that long. Listen for Kim's backing vocals on "Brand New Feeling." It was crisp and raw, and they sound excellent together. Hopefully, her vocals won't be removed this time how they were on my once good buddy, Joe Gottfried's, when it was released under the name, Beautiful Feelings, on Mercury Records. The treat we'll all be missing is the duet with Kim Carnes, Taxi Dancing; this release doesn't include Kim's version, still it was superb!! I always loved their original version, sorry Randi fans (Hard to Hold version) better with Kim than Randi. Yet another tune not even I heard then, Still Got the Magic, has been tossed in, giving us all something new to replace the original TAXI DANCING. THANKS to whoever released this awesome Rick compilation. I loved it then, and I'm certain I will still love it now. ((From "The Solitary One" in Minnesota, Mary Jo, a Rick fan from the beginning when he first stepped off his flight in Los Angeles in 1972. Loved him ever since. Here it is, nearly 38 years later, and I still love you today, Ricky!.)) TWO THUMBS UP on this compilation!

Rick sang "Looking For The One" on a TV show, Eddie Capra. I taped my cassette microphone to the TV, back when I didn't yet have a video recorder, and now here's a chance for ALL to take a listen to this awesome number in its original form. Some favorites are: of course, Solitary One, a given for me, Brand New Feeling (again, I hope Kim's vocals have been left intact), Beautiful Feelings, Cold Feet (he sang that one live on the Jerry Lewis Telethon, along with "She Called Me Bruce" that same year.) She Called Me Bruce, is always good, and COLD FEET. Don't quote me, but I do believe he wrote CF for his then girlfriend, Diana Davidson. He had a fear of marriage. (Poor bloke!) I bet when he wrote BRUCE he had no clue one day he'd be playing a doctor (on GH). "Doctor, doctor, you gotta help me here... you've gotta make it right for me. You see, this other man's name has been following me around, and it just won't let me be.... you see, he's got his name, and I've got my name, too, and while they're kind of close....." (Ya know the number.) This entire CD ROCKS!!!

Buy it, folks, this CD will NOT let you down. It is EXCELLENT!!! Rick played all the guitar tracks on this original, far better than the orchestrated version released in 1984, Beautiful Feelings, by Jonas Gottfried. (May Jonas rest in peace. He passed away some years ago now, or so I was told. I loved him. He was a dear friend of mine.) This will be the best $12.97 you ever spent on ANY Rick-related music item. TRUST ME!!! -Mary Jo Brunette, Minnesota
