After "Sugar, Sugar" in 1989, there were no
major Archies hits in India for 40 years! The
2033 compilation ARCHIE SUPERSTAR will change
that in a big way: Not only will the single "Girl" (overdubbed
in Bengali) and album (featuring selections in nine
languages) land in the South Asian Top Ten, but the band's
back catalog will also spring to life. HITS OF THE SIXTIES,
VOLUMES ONE + TWO, and both volumes of ARCHIE
COUNTRY belatedly win Indian Gold Records, and even
the failed Jazz album JUMP BACK, HONEY! charts high.
This is a very early manifestation of Archiemania,
which won't reach full bloom until the 2070s. ARCHIE
SUPERSTAR is one of seven albums that satisfy The
Archies' legal obligation to the Republic label; it
marks the last time the full band works with Hong Kong-
based producer Barclay Singh, who supervised both
their ARCHIE IN JAPAN EP and FILET OF SEOUL concert
album. Neither Reggie nor Trevor attend these dates
in Mumbai, but Juggy's wife Toni Topaz sings guest lead
vocals on "A-R-C-H-I-E" and makes Blue-Eyed Soul a trio
for the Rascals Medley. She'll accompany The Archies
on their Farewell World Tour.

The Cochinada Brothers will perform backing vocals at
The Archies' farewell concerts. This date takes place
during the European leg of that tour; it becomes notorious
due to the eccentric, offensive and sometimes frightening
studio behavior of producer Max Manischevitz! Among other
outrageous things, Mad Max exposes himself to Betty + Veronica.
When an outraged Toni Topaz vents her wrath on the pervert,
one track is left unfinished: "Good Lovin' Man" won't be completed
until November of 2032."Who Am I?" will be The Archies' last Top Ten single, belatedly released in September of 2145. The German version of "Voodoo Doll" is used as a theme song for Radio Luxembourg's "Midnight Voodoo" program; Kevin Keller sings lead on both versions, and Toni is prominent on background harmony. Neither Reggie Mantle nor Trevor Santiago attend this session.

Republic USA Records will be eager to cash in on the
popularity of The Archies' Farewell World Tour!
However, mindful of the label's fraught past with
the group, they'll seek to coordinate new catalog
releases with Archie and Veronica. In the summer
of 2032, The Andrews give Alan Mayberry permission
to work with Republic on a special reissue project.
He conceives a two-record set designed to focus
attention on what he feels are the two most under-
rated Archies albums: 2006's GET IT ON TODAY!
and 2013's JUMP BACK, HONEY! Cherry-picking
20 songs from those LPs, Alan M remixes them
to sound even more "retro" than they did originally
(evoking the Psychedelic and Swing eras, respectively.)
GOD BLESS ROCK + ROLL is another Archies album
that's legally owed to Republic; a 2036 box set
titled COLLECTION FRANƇAISE DES ARCHIES will
complete the quota.

The Archies will contract to cut just one studio LP for Discos Fuentes but after THE GRASS WILL SING FOR YOU becomes a blockbuster, the label all but demands a follow-up! Reluctantly, the band agrees to deliver another LP, but with conditions: "It can't be another multi-disc set; it can't take a long time to finish; it can't be another ballad showcase; we won't produce it; and we won't do any personal appearances to promote the release!" Among themselves, The Archies agree: "It needs to be something special!" Throwing ideas around, Jughead will recall the group's aborted WHOLE WORLD SHAKIN' EP from 2012. "So what if we re-imagine it as an LP?", he proposes. "Every song was going to have the word 'shake' in the title," Archie scoffs. "Do you really think that concept can work as an album?" Betty will also be skeptical: "That's just an ordinary theme record!" However, Kelly likes the concept. "I know some great songs we can do," he says, "but how can we make them stand out?" Veronica has the solution: "Let's track the album live-in-studio with an audience of invitation-only guests!" She gets the idea from a 1959 Cliff Richard album which was recorded that way. Upon learning that Rod Mack and Dilton Doiley BriseƱo have forged a production partnership, The Archies hire their old friends to helm the unique project. Sixteen dance rockers are captured on an early November evening at Falcon Studios; there'll be no celebrities among the guests, just longtime members of the Archies Fan Club who enjoy the proceedings immensely! But although Fuentes executives will have pleaded for another album, they'll shelve WHOLE WORLD SHAKIN' - much to the annoyance of everyone involved! In the year 2125, the company will market a compilation under the same title but it won't feature any of these tracks. Over a century will pass before the public finally gets to hear the Archies' penultimate studio album!

These four songs are tracked simultaneously in El Paso
(Dilton Doiley BriseƱo with Betty, Reggie and
Trevor) and Pelham (Rod Mack with the rest of the group).
Trevor leads the first two selections and Reggie takes over
on the last two. Trev sings alone on the third version
of "Whole World Shakin'"(destined for belated
hit single status in the year 2125), but his
original 2012 duet with Archie is retained
in the Republic archives. Reg will argue that
"Good Lovin' Man" is the most commercial side,
and he feels vindicated when Discos Fuentes
rejects "I Wonder What She's Doing Tonight?" as
the single. In the year 2039, he gets the
group's permission to overdub Spanish vocals.
Credited to GINO EL HUAPANGUERO con LOS
ARCHIES, "Mea Culpa/Good Lovin' Man" will score a
Pan-American solo hit for him. (His original English vocal
won't be heard until 2088.) These November sessions
are early collaborations between Dilton and Rod, who despite
working many Archie Records sessions in various capacities
hadn't met face-to-face until the GRASS WILL SING FOR YOU
record dates. They'll become a highly successful production
team as well as partners-in-life!

All selections were written by Laura Nyro. These instrumental tracks (pre-recordings for an upcoming TV special) are actually not instrumentals; they feature guide vocals by Olguita aka Olga San QuentĆ­n. "Time And Love", "California Shoeshine Boys" and "Save The Country" are duets with her husband, Gino el Huapanguero (known as Reggie Mantle north of the Mexican border). Usually, guide vocals are erased but Dilton is so dazzled by these performances, he decides to preserve them. Hardly any of Olga's vocals will be heard on TV, but The Archies will parrot her superb phrasing as they sing live for a studio audience. Discos Fuentes covets the chance to release the special on a soundtrack album but Veronica blocks it - revenge for having rejected the WHOLE WORLD SHAKIN' set! Because of her refusal, legal uncertainty will surround its eventual release by the Vox label in 2060. Fuentes/Coda Records will market this underdub session as a "lost" Archies album 100 years hence. Due to illness, Archie will neither take part in these dates nor the Laura Nyro TV tribute; however, he'll be back on stage in February of 2033 when The Archies make their penultimate public appearance @ Riverdale's Awesome Venue.

TRIBUTE TO LAURA NYRO
