Hey Eli did Thom Bell work with the duo Boy Meets Girl which featured songwriters George Merrill and Shannon Rubican?

Hi Fred!!
Thom didnt work with them as an 'act", only as songwriters based out of seattle's Mighty Three offic which Thom ran.

BTW, I have their original demo of I want to dance with somebody who love's me where Shannon sounds like Olivia Newton -John!!

I love G&S.
I saw George at Thom's 6oth and he said that he and Shannon have divorced but are stil friends.

Eli, what is Thom Bell doing these days? This is someone who I admired because of the writing and producing, but he seems like he was a low-key guy.
He's not someone you hear about very often. I've only seen him in pictures, never heard him speak or anything. Just thought I'd inquire, since I know that you know.:-)

Charise,
Yes, Thom is a low key guy the 'anti bling'!
Up until very recently he didnt even drive a car!
He's music all the way and a great , funny, and loquacious person.

He is getting ready for some very interesting projects .
I will keep you posted.

He does when no one is around(smile).
He and Quincy!!

The reason that Thom doesnt drive in public is that he was in a very serious auto accident in the mid sixties when he played piano for Brooks Odell.
