Rock & Roll High School With Pete Ganbarg

Jeff Barry (Legendary Songwriters Of The Brill Building Era)


Listen Later

Two brand new, exclusive interviews this week with two of the most legendary songwriters of all time - both members of the Rock & Roll and Songwriters Halls Of Fame - Jeff Barry and Barry Mann.  Both are synonymous with the iconic Brill Building era of the 1960’s but their evergreen hits continued well into the decades of the 70’s, 80’s and beyond.  The songs written by Jeff (with his then-wife Ellie Greenwich and others) and by Barry (with his wife Cynthia Weill and others) are still heard literally every day all over the world.  Jeff tells us all about the iconic hits he wrote like “Da Doo Ron Ron,” “Be My Baby” and “River Deep Mountain High,” as well as his work with Phil Spector, Bert Berns and Norman Lear.  Barry shares how he and Cynthia met, winning Grammy’s Song of the Year in 1987 for “Somewhere Out There” and creating the most performed songs of the entire 20th century, “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feeling.”
