Re: Jews & blues On A&E

[Robert Cohen <rlcm17...>]

The Leiber & Stoller segment, btw, will be on Thursday.  Tonight is the 
Teens who took over songwriting, or whatever, meaning Carole King & Gerry 
Goffin, Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil, Jeff Barry and Ellie Greenwich (whom my 
cousin actually waited on in a store--she was ecstatic!), etc.

Trivia question, probably to be answered tonight:  What's the most 
frequently played (i.e., on radio and in other public performances) song in 
the BMI category?  Needless to say, the answer relates to the A&E series.
