705.0. "The Rembrandts" by RANGER::MAYNARD () Tue Feb 28 1995 10:31

    The theme song for the tv show Friends (I'll Be There For You ?) is
    credited to the Rembrandts. Checking out the music stores I found 2
    CDs by this band, none with the aforementioned song. Does anyone know
    if this song is on a CD ? Any info on this band ?

    They had a hit with the song " I don't mind at all" very Beatles
    influenced.

I don't know the show or the song, but the Rembrandts "untitled" CD (as
opposed to their untitled CD) has a song called "Hang On to Forever" with
these lines:

	You're nowhere
	If you think that I'll always be there
	I'll be there for you now

chorus: When you gonna open up and let me in
	I can't hang on to forever baby
	When you gonna let me love for you begin
	Hey I don't wanna bring you down
	But we've come too far to turn around

If that doesn't match up, send me a few more lines from the song if you
remember it.  I have both CDs, and can check the lyrics for the song you're
looking for....  (I recommend both releases, btw.  Good stuff....)

    The "I don't mind at all" originally done by Bourgious Tagg, and
    produced by Todd Rundgren?

705.5Good news/Bad newsRANGER::MAYNARDTue May 30 1995 10:356
    Just found out this weekend that due to heavy demand from "Friends"
    viewers, the song "I'll Be There For You" is included on the Rembrandts
    just released CD. The bad news is that stores like Newbury Comics,
    Strawberries and Cocoanuts are having trouble keeping up with demand,
    so the CD is hard to find.

    The Rembrandt's new CD is titled "LP". It rocks a lot harder than I
    expected, with great harmonies and interesting guitar work. There are
    also people like Benmont Tench and Bill Payne backing them up.
    I would recommend it.
    FWIW
    The Friends theme song is NOT listed on the CD-it's a bonus track that
    was added on at the last minute.

    But the bad news is that they have refused to release it as a single,
    so you have to buy the album.
    
    I'm going to tape it off the radio.
