Enoch Light & Command All Stars & Bobby Byrne..320.Kbps


Well here's a strange one !!..Its a double L/P full of percussion Latin Tunes so if anyone likes "percussion" then give this one your ear !! The strange thing about it is that on Disc 1 is Side A & D and on Disc 2 is Side B & C....Would have thought that Disc 1 should be A & B and Disc 2 should be C & D...Maybe the producers were at a party dancing to it and were worse for wear !!
But apart from that it is very good Stereo and a good easy listening not forgetting dancing around the room to it !!

P.S. Here is a comment that clears the confusion of the above !!!Blogger

The discs are configured the way they are so that you can put the two discs on a record changer at the same time and play first side A and then side B in order and then after they have played you can remove the discs from the spindle, turn them over and play side C and then side D. Otherwise, you would have to play the sides one at a time with a time delay while you flipped the discs after each playing.

Johnny Hallyday


24 tracks from the late "French Rocker !...some of the tracks will be instantly recognisable... I should think that this is a cross section of his work..so if you like the Rocker element in your music give this a whirl !!

The very distinctive voice of Blossom Dearie giving her versions of some fine standard songs and she does a great job with them...Her voice is one that you either love or hate !!...Just like the old saying about "Marmite" !!!

Ted Heath & His Band


The original Ted Heath Band of the 50's & 60's....six tracks of his popular songs AND ....

The London Suite was written by Thomas "Fats" Waller during his 1939 European tour. It is his musical interpretation of six London districts and the suite was arranged for and recorded by the Ted Heath band in 1947, then re-recorded in 1953/4. Piccadilly is scored as an up-tempo yet light and bouncy swing chart that reflects the urban sophistication and wealth of the area. There are solos for Alto 1, Tenor and Guitar (or Piano), some lovely sectional interplays, powerful ensemble passages and a couple of sweet sax solo passages too. 

Some Great Big Band sounds....concert style !!!

1. Honeysuckle Rose
2. Ain't Misbehavin'
3. Blue Turning Grey Over You
4. Jitterbug Waltz
5. I've Got A Feeling I'm Falling
