The Mellotron Group

Gino, thanks for pointing out to us that Whitney Houston sang "Memories"; I never knew that.


I didn't follow Whitney Houston, but I always loved Soft Machine.

Respectfully, I don't think Material's version with WH is all that bad.  "Memories" is such a great song, it's hard to ruin it.

So below is Material's cover and the original Soft Machine single.

BTW, RIP Mr. Hugh Hopper...

Sarah Vaughn she was not.  What she did was fashion, showbiz, not music. Music is incidental to people in her situation.  Confluential to selling shit.

She sang Hugh Hopper's "Memories" with Material and they had the nerve to put it out as a 12"
That was some sad shit.
