Two Doors Down
" Two Doors Down" was a song written and performed by Dolly Parton, which provided a 1978 U.S. country and pop hit for her.
The song was sung from the perspective of a woman who has just broken up with her boyfriend and is debating attending a party two doors down the hall from her apartment.
She decides to go, meets a new man and returns with him to her own apartment" two doors down".
It was included on Parton's 1977" Here You Come Again" album, but before Parton could release it as the album's second single in March 1978, singer Zella Lehr released a cover version that became a top ten U.S. country hit.
While Lehr's version was on the country charts, the title cut of" Here You Come Again" was becoming a much bigger pop hit than Parton had anticipated.
Wanting to capitalize on her newfound pop success( and also not wanting to compete with Lehr's country version of the song) Parton rerecorded a more loose, pop- oriented version of" Two Doors Down" with a slight disco flavoring.
She released the new version on a double- A- sided single, with the other side," It's All Wrong, but It's All Right" intended for country airplay, and" Two Doors Down" intended for the pop airplay.
The single topped the U.S. country charts, and was a top- 20 pop hit for Parton, and went on to be one of her most popular hits.
Also in 1978 Joe Thomas did his own disco cover of this song.
Parton also had the new version of" Two Doors Down"( which omitted the first verse, and included an upbeat" sing- along" bridge) replace the previous version on all subsequent pressings of" Here You Come Again", making the earlier version something of a collectors' item among Parton's fans.
The original version of" Two Doors Down" was subsequently issued on CD in 2000 on the 3- CD Australian compilation" Legendary Dolly Parton", which is now out of print.
Here You Come Again (song)
"Here You Come Again" is a song written by Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil, and recorded by American entertainer Dolly Parton.
It was released as a single in September 1977 as the title track from Parton's album of the same name, and which topped the U.S. country singles chart for five weeks, and won the 1979 Grammy award for Best Female Country Vocal Performance; it also reached number three on the U.S. "Billboard" Hot 100, representing Parton's first significant pop crossover hit.

Gary Klein (producer)
Gary Klein( born September 28, 1942 in Brooklyn, New York) is an American songwriter and Grammy nominated record producer.
He graduated from Long Island University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music.
In the era which included classic rock, country, punk, disco, pop, record producer Gary Klein was well known for working across genres and often crossing over genres such as country music legends Dolly Parton and Glen Campbell with" Here You Come Again" and" Southern Nights," arguably the beginnings of country music being accepted by mainstream pop audiences.
From Carrie
Underwood to Taylor Swift it would be difficult to imagine their mainstream pop success today without looking back to Parton and Klein ’s produced rendition of the Mann/ Weill penned “ Here You Come Again. ”
Until then, like television actors trying to get into movies to capture mainstream success, country music had tried and failed to crossover many times before.
Klein ’s production of “ Here You Come Again, ” with a never done before piano intro by musician David Foster playing piano, Klein devised a sound with an ingenious idea placing masking tape across the keys inside the piano.
The sound, often recreated since, had a metallic, yet subtle quality that was instantly recognizable.
Record Producer Klein liked a “ memorable intro or hook, ” was not alone.
Nirvana ’s Kurt Cobain noted on many occasions the importance of a simple catchy intro in a great pop song which Cobain, a well known Beatles fan, was trying to recreate with his own style of music.
In 1962, Gary Klein co- wrote the international pop hit song" Bobby ’s Girl".
He continued songwriting for a short time including “ Guess Who? ”( Kornfeld/ Klein), which was included on Dusty Springfield ’s “ Dusty ” album.
However, it was obvious early on that Klein had an ear and talent for record production( technology and music) which later proved true.
Singer/ songwriter Tim Hardin, despite being recognized as a great songwriter in music circles had struggled to gain traction as a mainstream artist.
His immense talent was difficult to capture on tape in a recording studio.
In 1968, Klein produced Tim Hardin ’s ” Live in Concert 3. ”
Hardin changed Record Producer
Gary Klein labels and in 1969 his first studio release for Columbia Records “ Suite for Susie Moore and Damion: We are One, One, We Are ” was producer by Klein reaching 129 on Billboard ’s top 200 album charts.
In his review for Allmusic, music critic Bruce Eder wrote of the reissue that included" Bird on a WireThere's a lot of pain in this disc, to be sure — it's hard to find a Hardin song that did n't have some — but also a level of lyrical and musical excellence that one should feel privileged to partake of."
1968, Klein produced “" Tim Hardin 3 Live in Concert" ” 1969, Klein produced the Hardin album.
In 1974, Mac Davis, while working on a new album wrote the song" Stop and Smell the Roses".
This was a phrase Doc Severinsen, band leader of The “ Tonight Show with Johnny Carson ” had mentioned to Davis, giving Doc co-writing credit.
However, the song was not proving an easy recording as the album was being produced by Rick Hall known as the “ Father of Muscle Shoals Music."
Columbia
Records went to young record producer
Klein, then 32, asking if he'd like to give what they were hoping to release as the first single “ Stop and Smell the Roses, ” a shot at production and they ’d choose which producers rendition they preferred as the single.
Ultimately the Klein version won out.
It went to# 1 on Billboard Magazine's Adult Contemporary charts and was a top 10 pop hit.
In 1975, Klein recorded Johnny Cash's album" John R. Cash".
In an attempt to try something new and revive his career the" Columbia bosses" wanted Cash to record other people's material, covers.
It did not prove successful.
Cash later blamed it on the" bosses," finding no fault in the production.
He mentioned he'd work again with Klein down the line.
In 1976- 1977, Klein began working with Glen Campbell.
This resulted in the pop and country# 1 hit" Southern Nights".
Upon Campbell's crossover to the pop charts, Dolly Parton and RCA Records wondered if he could do the same for her.
In 1977, Klein produced Dolly Parton's classic pop hit album" Here You Come Again".
It was the first of three albums he'd produce for Parton resulting in country and pop hit records.
In 1976, Barbra Streisand had just won an Academy Award for her song" Evergreen".
Klein began working with Streisand in 1977 on her album" SupermanMy Heart Belongs to Me" hit# 1 on the Adult Contemporary charts and the album went to# 4 on Billboard's top 100 resulting in double platinum album.
In 1978, Streisand's" Songbird" album was released.
It proved another double platinum album and at this point, Streisand was doing an album a year with Klein.
In 1979- 80 Klein produced Streisand's" Wet" album.
This included the# 1 single" Enough is Enough, ” a smash- hit duet with Donna Summer, often sites as the last great disco hit and end of an era Gary Klein stopped producing records in 1987.
He joined EMI Records/ EMI Music Publishing ’s CEO/ Chairman Charles Koppelman in 1989 becoming an executive at the company.
While there he transitioned to the publishing division full time working with CEO/ Chairman Martin Bandier.
Koppelman, Bandier and Klein originally worked together at The Entertainment Company in( 1975- 1982).
The company was financed by Real Estate Tycoon Samuel J. LeFrak.
They were led by CEO Charles Koppelman who oversaw all aspects of the company with Martin Bandier as General Counsel and Klein leading the creative side of the business as record producer.
Klein remained with Koppelman and Bandier at EMI and went on to have a 20 year run as an executive at the company.
