Letter to PERCY FAITH and his answers
(I wrote and left spaces in the letter for his answers) (added 7/16/2018)
Marilyn
Faith Leonard's beautiful handwriting (I think article appeared in a PF Society
Newsletter)
Letter
to Columbia expressing my dissatisfaction with "16 Most Requested" and the Music
of Christmas botched digital remaster (fixed finally in 2017 by Real Gone Music)
(needless to say the letter drew no response)
Spring 1974 Concert at Daughters of the Revolution Constitution Hall - The
Program (Percy Faith with a band? No strings? It happened, see next
item for the next year's program (!)
Spring 1975 Concert at Daughters of the American Revolution Constitution Hall
(and still no strings 'cept a lone cellist) program
Guest Pass
to Reception Line so Hank Steele and I could meet Percy Faith (I took no photos
in 1975, as Percy was very ill, but kept working!)
Picture from Percy
Faith's "All Time Greatest Hits" album, possibly higher resolution (from a b&w
glossy original)
Letter from
Mr. Ienner via Mr. Devito (CBS). His references to "more on the way" told
me nothing. I did speak with Mike Berniker a few times; I don't know this
history, but could Mr. Berniker have joined Collectables? That's where I
remember talking to him. Eternal confusion! On the phone, Mr.
Berniker advised that he was juggling 3 projects and there were no Faith
reissues planned (anyone know? Obviously Nina's Discount Oldies had BIG
PLANS).
Leaflet about the May
concert tour (1976) where David Rose conducted, 1/2 of the program was a tribute
to Percy Faith, 1/2 of the program all David Rose, in fact as I recall all David
Rose originals.
Very nice note from Dolly
after my visit
1976 Obituary
for Percy Faith, (I don't know what newspaper it came from)
Obituary written by Sam Lutz, I
have to think this is where the press got their "over 45 albums" (gee) figure.
I "think" Sam Lutz used to be in NYC and then retired to California, but I'm not
sure. I remember when I called his office in the early 80's and spoke to
Elaine Shear of his office, they were in New York.
Travel agency printout of my
BIG TRIP TO Los Angeles (I think I stayed 6 days??? can't find whole ticket)
