 This I think was David's first recording...he had a hand in writing four of the songs on this L/P...a nice set of songs for a first try....That is if I'm right...One that stands out for me is "Black Bean Soup "!!

P.S. Track 1 on first side is "The Wall & 1927 Kansas City" no gap in track !!

  Thought that I would give all you Jazz lovers out there a treat and include this L/P....it's another cool one a bit more on the "Jazzy" side than the "My Fair Lady" L/P but still worth a listen....There is more improvisations in the tunes but you can still recognise them....Andre Previn is a great pianist....The "Friends" only got together for the L/P sessions and from what I found out they only made 3 L/P's on the Contempory Label...

As you can see from the front cover this L/P is from the soundtrack of the two films that Glenn Miller made...Great to see that his line up at that time included "Billy May" and "Ray Anthony" both as we all know became "Band Leaders" under there own steam!!!!...included is two classic Miller tracks....great stuff love the "Swing " bands of the 40's & 50's !!

Sorry for all the scatches snaps crackles and pops on this L/P..Its one of a few I lent out years ago and they were returned like it...even the covers were ripped had to get the above from "google" but couldn't find the back....That was a lesson I learned not to lend out L/P's !!

It is of course the soundtrack from the film complete with all the orchestration tracks

Sinatra sings on 6 tracks Kim Novac on 2 and Rita Hayworth on 2....Its a good memory of a classic film !!

 

P.S. Did find the back but not a very good one !!

Glen Campbell

As "The Cheerful Earfull" Says !!..."Buckets Of Sad ".... for the passing of Glen Campbell he certainly could play the guitar and this L/P shows that he was a first rate player !!! as well as a good singer !...but on this L/P there is only one track that he sings on...so with this L/P he should be remembered for his Guitar playing as well. !!!!
