Eric Carmen studied piano at Julliard, and that experience was what prompted him to take pieces by Rachmaninoff and turn them into popular songs. This was a time honored tradition, for "Full Moon and Empty Arms" was taken from the third movement of Rachmaninoff's Second Piano Concerto in 1941.
"All by Myself" was taken from the second movement of the same concerto. Here is what the original sounds like.

Another girl group came to Red-Bird, and Leiber and Stoller teamed the Jellybeans with Jeff Barry and Ellie Greenwich for a hit of their own in the summer of 1964.

Thanks for that little tidbit of information. The tune sounded
vaguely familiar, but of course I never thought about it
being a classic piece. :)

Ellie Greenwich had been schoolmates with an eccentric character named George Morton. He suddenly showed up at her office in the Brill Building one day in 1964, claiming that he could write and produce. After he impressed Ellie with a demo, she and Jeff Barry helped him land a gig at Red-Bird. Mortons demo was an unconventional song recorded by a girl group comprised of two sets of sisters. Jeff and Ellie helped Morton, whom they nicknamed Shadow for his habit of disappearing, to structure his song and re-cut it. The daring lyrics, which dealt with loss of virginity and abandonment, made it a huge hit. Lead singer Mary Weiss Stokes had a tremulous teenage voice that was perfect for putting across such melodramatic material. She was both vulnerable and insolent at the same time.

For the groups second record, Jeff Barry and Ellie Greenwich gave Mary all the melodrama she could handle. It was the greatest rebel-without-a-cause song of all time, shocking mid-Sixties America with its morbid atmosphere and grinding motorcycle crash sound effects. It was banned in some regions of the country, but that didnt stop it from selling.

Great song, they couldn’t make it now.

Jeff Barry and Ellie Greenwich gave the girls another hit in 1965, this one about manhood, the power of love, and how the two can sometimes come into conflict. This masterpiece is one of the great underestimated songs of the mid-Sixties. The fade-out is haunting.

Jeff Barry and Ellie Greenwich gave the girls another success in 1965. This is the story of a youthful couple who succumbed to a car crash on their way to be married. This weeper had been written for Ray Peterson years earlier.

The Quincy Jones connection gave Jeff Barry and Ellie Greenwich another song placement with Lesley Gore. Hal Blaines percussion work is nothing less than stellar. There were two versions of this song released with different percussion and background vocal tracks. The individual who produced this video edited the two versions together to make a seamless whole. Kudos! A fine job!
