Who ARE you People?.......2005-01-15
I only accessed this spot to see where I could find "Everyday I Have to Cry Some", and I find (gasp) an anthology?!!! I thought after the aforementioned song that Dick Clark took Steve Alaimo in and gave him a job! I really liked his one "hit" (although it never cracked the Top 40) but I never expected to find someone touting his "charted" hits. He recorded the albums "Twist with Steve Alaimo" and "Mashed Potatoes" but Chubby Checker (another Dick Clark minion) and DeeDee Sharp had those franchises sewed up; the albums flopped. Then came his one hit. I know he wrote some and went on to do some successful record producing and I am glad for him. But, puh-leeze! His ill-advised imitations of other singers are ridiculous. Buck Owens' "Love's Gonna Live Here" as Bobby Darin might have sung it? "Blowin' in the Wind", a Dylan song by way of Peter, Paul and Mary? "New Orleans", a Gary U.S. Bonds hit? And "Wild Side of Life" from antique country singer Kitty Wells? Was he trying to throw out a lot of grenades and hoped one would hit its target? Jeez! Even "Everyday I Have to Cry Some", while well-produced, doesn't sound like the original. Three stars is generous, even for a Sagittarian Dragon. (I just threw that in).
A great songwriter too............2003-09-17
Steve co-wrote with Greg Allman what is probably one of the most well known and best Allman Brothers songs ever - "Melissa", which appeared on the Eat A Peach album. He also wrote "God Rest His Soul", about Martin Luther King's assasination, which was recorded by Greg and Duane Allman before they formed the Allman Brothers Band. Originally pretty hard to find, the song was released on the Allmans box set, "Dreams", and is well worth checking out. An excellent song and perfect vehicle for Greg Allman's soulful voice. Steve may not have charted very high, but he did write some very fine tunes.

Great to see Steve have a hand in his own Anthology, and a nice 31 tracks. On the downside, many of the tracks are from lacking vinyl & some of his charted hits are missing...not exactly a proper "Anthology" now is it!? Regardless, I don't forsee anything else coming out legitimately soon so...this will do.
