I think this was back in 1972. At any rate, I was still in high school when I wrote string and flute arrangements for this local 45. Jan Ince sang two of her songs, and Caltrick Simone (whose real name I’ve forgotten) produced. I also played ‘cello on it. An internet search reveals that copies still surface on eBay.

Doug,
First, Caltrick’s real name was Jeff Stein, I believe. (That might have been his brother’s name, though. Definitely Stein. Can’t recall how he came up with the showbiz pseudonym.)
But I digress. I played drums on this record — my first time in a studio. Jan went on to marry an English film composer and lived over there for a while. Last I heard she was living in rural Virginia.
I found this page because I just heard from the nephew of another Secant artist, David Coggshall. Did you do the strings on his record, too?
Take care,
DN

Hey, nice to hear from you. It was so long ago. Any idea what happened to Simone/Stein? And no, that was the only Secant record I worked on.

Hi Doug – curious about this Secant release – my uncle was David Coggeshall and I think his was the next record out for them… just trying to piece together his story a little bit more and was curious if you may have worked with him. Throw me an e-mail some time if you get this. Thanks!

Jeff Stein is correct. His brother is Danny. I was wondering where Caltrick is because my mother (92 years old) just asked about him. I was thinking on one of the Secant records Caltrick put an instrumental version of something disco like.

Caltrick Simone produced some of my demos at Track Recorders in Silver Spring, MD back in the 1970s. I too wonder what became of him. He once got Tony Bongiovi and Lance Quinn interested in my tunes, but nothing came of it. Just an FYI for anyone who cares…..
