ACT LIKE A LADY
(SOIS UNE LADY)Introduced by Shapiro Bernstein Music (Denny's first publisher), Denny and Neil Diamond penned this song together before either of them had written their first hit.
Denny: "Neil had a cozy little office on Broadway at that time with an upright piano in it. After Neil and I met at the SB offices we walked over there. Neil got out his acoustic guitar, I sat down at the piano and we wrote the song. For the demo we went to Dick Charles recording, the demo studio de Jour of the times, and laid down a simple track. Then Neil sang and in an hour or so we had our demo. We wrote the song for a female artist, maybe Leslie Gore. If so, she didn't record it. But a French version was recorded at some point, I guess from our little demo". Note: In getting this short story together for the web site, Denny has become curious to hear the French version and is checking around for it.
