The co-writer:
Bud Rehak, a regular songwriting partner, had been Rambeau’s manager and accompanist since the earliest days of his career in his hometown of Hazelton, Pennsylvania.

The producer:
As an arranger, Charles Calello contributed to the sound of major 60s group The Four Seasons, along with Crewe, their producer. Callelo had been a member of The Four Lovers, as the group was originally called, and rejoined on bass in 1965. Both Crewe and Calello had distinguished careers with numerous major artists.
