Tracy • The Cufflinks • Ron Donte lead singer • 1969 Top Ten Hit! • Tracy is a song written by Lee Pockriss and Paul Vance, which was released in 1969 by The Cuff Links and featured Ron Dante on vocals.[1][2] Dante recalled recording the vocals for Tracy stating, I put on a lead voice, doubled it a few times, and then put about 16, 18 backgrounds. [3] • The song spent 12 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, peaking at No. 9,[4] while reaching No. 5 on Billboard's Easy Listening chart,[5] No. 5 on the Cash Box Top 100,[6] No. 1 on Canada's RPM 100,[7] No. 4 on the UK Singles Chart,[1] No. 4 on New Zealand's NZ Listener chart,[8][9] and No. 9 on Australia's Go-Set chart.[10] • https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tracy_(...) • Tracy hit the charts in October 1969, just as Sugar, Sugar, a single for The Archies and the product of another anonymous recording session by Dante, was descending from its No. 1 spot. Dante's vocals for Tracy were recorded in just hours. He recalled: I put on a lead voice, doubled it a few times, and then put about 16, 18 backgrounds. [2] Tracy spent 12 weeks in the U.S. chart, and subsequently sold over one million copies, being awarded a gold record by the R.I.A.A.[3] • Dante had promised Tracy's songwriters, Paul Vance and Lee Pockriss, that if the song was a hit he would record an entire Cuff Links album; when it charted, Vance and Pockriss quickly delved through their catalogue to produce more songs. It was the quickest album I'd ever done, Dante remarked. I think I did the entire background vocals and leads in a day and a half – for the entire album. I remember doing at least four or five songs in one day. [2] To speed the project, Vance and Pockriss hired novice arranger Rupert Holmes to work on the album, which was also titled Tracy and included the second hit, When Julie Comes Around, which peaked at No. 41 in the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and No. 10 in the UK Singles Chart. The album liner notes wove a tale of how Vance and Pockriss discovered the seven-member group (which according to the same notes later swelled to a nine-person group), but did not name any group members, or show any pictures of the supposed band. Instead, the album featured an unnamed cover model.[4] • As the album was being completed, Vance and Pockriss created a seven-member touring band, comprising Pat Rizzo (saxophone), Rich Dimino (keyboards), Bob Gill (trumpet/flugelhorn/flute), Dave Lavender (guitar), Andrew Junior Denno (bass), Joe Cord (vocals) and Danny Valentine (drums). • Dante opted not to tour with the group, having accepted a solo album recording contract by Archies creator Don Kirshner that excluded any more outside work. When he called Vance to obtain his royalties for the first album, Vance refused to pay up unless Dante recorded a second album. The dispute was settled only after a personal confrontation at Vance's office.[2] • • Tracy - The Cufflinks - in HD - The C...
