Lee Curreri - "Everyone's A Winner" Yummy Awards September 1983.



Lee Curreri performs "Everyone's A Winner" a song he wrote for the 1st Annual Yummy awards which were broadcast 17th September 1983.


Lee posted about the experience:

"When NBC asked me to come up with a song for the Saturday Morning cartoon lineup, I did a demo in my little bedroom studio with an Emulator 1, a Linn Drum, a Rhodes, and an OBx-a synth. The day after I submitted the demo, I heard a knock on my dressing room door - it was my arranger idol, Peter Matz (the bandleader for the Carol Burnett Show). Some kids idolized athletes, I idolized bandleaders 😃 Peter was working on the charts for the song. He invited me to the recording session with the orchestra. I was in seventh heaven - I got to hear an orchestra perform what I had recorded, overdubbing with my Emulator on a Tascam 4-track - with Peter Matz conducting!"
