Marc Blatte is the Grammy-nominated, Clio-winning composer of, literally, scores of some of the best known jingles and top 10 hits of the 80s and 90s...and beyond, often with writing partner Larry Gottlieb.
Do you remember holding "hands across America" to raise awareness for homelessness? You were holding hands to Marc's song. Did you sing along with Kenny Rogers when he described the Pride of America...or lipsync to Marie Osmond's top country hit, Read My Lips, or dance to the Four Tops' When She Was My Girl? Marc. With creative assists from producer Jeanne Neary Look or Larry Gottlieb. Marc is definitely one of my friends in high places...but he's also my step-brother. So, I got my "bro" to share the inside track on the evolution of some of these tunes, some pretty funny stories, and some of the life-changing advice he got along the way.
