My Life In The Brill Building
is a performance featuring George Goehring, composer of the music to
such songs as "Lipstick on your Collar,"by Connie Francis, "Half
Heaven Half Heartache," by Gene Pitney, and "The Mystery of You" by the
Platters, all top ten hits in the late 1950s and early 1960s. In
concert George tells how he came to write these and other songs, how
they came to be recorded, and shares some stories of the legendary
songwriters and publishers in the Brill Building, the place where so
much of the music of that era originated. Joined by south Florida
musicians Nicole Yarling, Ellen Bukstel and Rod MacDonald, George puts
on a great show, and these concerts frequently sell out, so get your
tickets early!
