Clairette Clementino - IT'S HAPPENING TO ME (Stu Phillips) (1964)

NO COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT INTENDED - (Capitol 5177) Out of Los Angeles and recorded at The Capitol Tower, this 1964 release is one of a series of fine girl pop singles issued by Miss Clementino on the Capitol label. Stu Phillips both produced and arranged this tune and his dreamy arrangement is just dripping with a sweet, larger than life string section that he became known for with his work recording The Hollyridge Strings.

A big 'Thank You' to Ken Friedman who kindly supplied the B&W photo of Miss Clementino for this video.

@chkjns "...Put another candle on the birthday cake, you're another year old today...!" Happy Birthday, Chuck. From me and if you recognize those lyrics, also from SHERIFF JOHN!

Lovely words from a love song long ago. Times were still so innocent and love at that time usually included sweet little kisses and butterflies in your middle. The joy we feel about love when we are young is really captured by her lovely voice and the words. They go together in a way as to make those who knew this song when they were young capable of recapturing their youth as often as they want simly by hitting Replay. Thank you for a wonderful post.

@MrMaymac Miguel - I spent over an HOUR with Stu Phillips in LA last Saturday !!! He is one swell guy and autographed about a dozen items for me & gave me the CD reissue of his 1965 Nat King Cole Hits album. He told the film composer beside him that he's never had a fan like me before. His Hollyridge playlist is now the first one featured & he's about to displace Ray Conniff as my Numero Uno musical hero !!! chuck
