Sergio did an interview in Rolling Stone Magazine where he talked about reforming the group to accommodate the sound he was looking for at the time.
Mike Blakesley said:I also thought "Voo Doo" was a great tune. But you're probably right, they wanted to feature Pizzulo on the vocals. (I still to this day can't understand why "Real Life," from the CONFETTI album, wasn't a smash hit.)
Mr Bill said:"Rainbow's End" is probably my favorite track on his A&M Return LP (followed closely by "Life In The Movies"). I was pretty excited to see David Batteau's name among the LP songwriting credits. If you're able to find a copy I strongly recommend Batteau's A&M debut LP, Happy In Hollywood, A&M SP4576.
Brasil_Nut said:Personally, I would have selected "Life In The Movies" as a follow-up to "Never Gonna Let You Go" instead to "Rainbow's End". Then again, Joe had been an integral part of Sergio's return to the mainstream. It must have seemed fitting to feature "Rainbow's End" because of his vocals...sensational all the same.
A&Mguyfromwayback said:PS.....is the David Batteau song you're talking about "Automatic Man" by Sembello?
it was the final Top 40 hit by one of the most successful soft-rock acts of the '70s
