South Pacific....320 Kbps

The covers of this L/P is what I got from the internet mine are ripped and in tatters....This as you see is the soundtrack from the film and it seems that the only two people that actually sang was "Mitzi Gaynor" & "Ray Walston"...all the rest were dubbed by different people....shame they didn't get actors that could sing to be in it !!

2. Something

Bobbie Gentry....320 Kbps

This L/P is recorded as "Side One" & Side Two"....reason being that in between the tracks there are "Musical Interludes" that meant that there is not much time between tracks and I think it is an integral part of the L/P so I left them in.....A gentle set of songs all written by Bobbie with a "Country & Western" feel !!

1. Benjamin
2. Marigolds & Tangerines
3. Billy The Kid
4. Beverly

Perry Como....320 Kbps

The Original "Mr Laid Back" gives good interpretations of some late 60's early 70's contemporary songs...these were recorded from 1968 to 1975....so I assume that this might be a compilation L/P....the producers range from "Chet Atkins"to "Don Costa" via "Pete Spargo"
"Andy Wiswell" "Ernie Altschular"......It is a very quiet soothing and as usual "Laid Back Effort" from "Mr C" !!!....And it includes his Hit "Its Impossible" !!!

1. And I Love You
2. The Way We Were
3. Seattle
4. Close To You
5. If
6. Father Of Girls

Andy Williams...320 Kbps

Here's that big record producer of the 70's "Richard Perry" taking on "Andy Williams"...he certainly worked with some of the great singers and produced some brilliant L/P's.....He's worked with "Barbra Sriesand" "Ella" "Leo Sayer" and loads more just check him out on "Google" to see how diverse he is !!....All the songs on this L/P are contempory of the song composers of the 1970's...and not a standard in sight !!....and a great different version of "Walk Right Back" !!!

1. Solitaire
2. Make It Easy For Me
3. You Are The Sunshine Of my Life
4. Getting Over You
5. Remember

1. That Is All
2. Walk Right Back
3. Last Tango In Paris

Xavier Cugat & His Orchestra

We will re-visit  "Belgium" and say "Hi" to "Bob" again with this "Latin Sound" that might get you dancing around the room !!!...Oooops mind that table !!!.....Thanks "B"

1. Siboney.

Jack Jones

One of Jack Jones best L/P's in my opinion....I wish he had done more tracks on it tho' only 10 tracks total playing time aprox 28 mins seems a bit mean !!! Even Sinatra gave us 15 tracks on both of his "Swingin' " L/P's !!....Best Track is "It Don't Matter To Me"!!

1. Make It With You
2. Baby I'm-a Want you
3. Coming Apart
4. If
5. Daughter

1. Games Of Magic
2. Everything I Own
3. Diary
4. It Don't Matter To me
5. Come Again

4. It Don't Matter To Me.

Jazz In The 20's..VA

Here'a a treat for all the lovers of  the .“Roaring 20s" or "Jazz Age." ...unfortunately I got it without a track list so this could be a pure 1920's experience just listen to the music and hope all your cares will be blown away on the mists of time !!!...no sound bite neither !!...Just 30 mins of nostalgia !!!

Dante & His Orchestra

Don't know what cats ! have to do with this selection of instrumental tunes !!...But it's a great cover !!!....L/P cover designers running out of idea's !...Sooooooo stick SEX on the cover and a near naked lady and maybe we will sell some Records !!....must admit tho' its a good clear recording !!...And whoever wrote the back cover must have been on something !!! GREAT !!!
Thanks "John" for this unusual Gem !!!

 "SEX KITTENS"
... modern myrrh and mischief ...
flat-tummied, twin-turreted gamins ...
moist pouted underlips ... amoral pixies and confused carnivores
stuffed animals, jazz and racing cars ... lazy, lithe
child wastrels ... sic transit GINA and MARILYN
swiftly now, cross over the BRIGETTE.
Lush the sex kittens; lush their serenades ...
zee melodies Americaine burst like grapeseeds
from Paris terraces ... sweeping strings, tres hi fi, society brisk ...
whirring, purring ... gay, cyclical Sartrian
strains ... hers all hers ... her manner,
her madness ... HER MUSIC.

5. My One And Only Love.

Jack Jones.

Another fist class L/P from Mr Jones...recorded 1965-66-67 according to the label on the L/P, so I imagine that might be some singles involved....usually the singer and producer of the L/P choose the songs for it and record then all in one go....or the tracks have been lying around for some time and someone decided to create an L/P

3. As Time Goes By.

The Four Freshmen.

Another great recording of songs by 4 guys who sing and play instruments..trombone and trumpets I believe !!....but not at the same time !!....great track is "Crazy Bones"

  4. I Wanna Go Where You Go.

Petula Clark

This Petula L/P was the only one that she recorded for MGM....obviously in america there is not much information on the back cover I think it was probably 1972 or thereabouts Pets in good voice and the tracks are a mixture pop tunes... and one written by her and one by Tony Hatch & Jackie Trent....The arrangments are by "Don Costa" who has done most of "Eydie Gorme's" L/Ps so they are cool !!...(Now is 1972)....not 2019 !!

6. Baby I'm Yours

Mason Williams.

This is the guy who wrote the hit "Classical Gas"and he does another version of it on this L/P..I have posted another "Mason Williams" L/P earlier and it has been downloaded 97 times so I guess some of you out there have given it a listen !!..This L/P is just as good so PEEPS don't be shy and give it a go....Apart from "Classical Gas"can't say that I have not heard of any other of his tracks that have become Hits.....A fantastic track is "Manha De Carnival" its a "Cool" L/P !!

1. Jose's Place
2. Find A Reason To Believe
3. Saturday Night At The World
4. I've Heard That Tearstained Monologue
5. All The Time

1. Classical Gas
2. The Tomato Vendetta
3. Manha De Carnival
4. Its Over
5. The Exiting Accident

 3. Manha De Carnival.

Barbra Streisand

   Now then !!! I have a bit of an issue with this L/P.....BUT before I go into it I have to tell you that it has my all time favourite "Streisand" track and also my second favourite one on it !!
that is...No 1 all time great track..."The Kind Of Man A Woman Needs" No 2..."He Touched Me"....both of these are "Barbra" at her best !!!!......Now comes the moans....I wish that the producers had toned down the orchestra... on some of the tracks I think that it seems like the vocals and orchestra where trying to outdo one another to see who could be louder !!....It is from a TV special show....maybe it's taken from that but I doubt it...I think that Barbra would have gone into the studio to record the tracks...OR maybe I have a faulty pressing....be interested if any one out there who has the L/P has a pristine one !!...and is different !!

 1. He Touched Me.

Hollywood Gold..VA

I could listen to this L/P all night and have done in the past !...Why oh why didn't the record company continue with a series and followed it up with Volume 2 ect...they certainly have enough songs to do it !!!....All the tracks are taken from the MGM musical films from 1937 onwards and MGM made loads of them....Its a sad fact that most of the singers on this L/P are no longer with us.... BUT its great that we can remember them by Film & Record !!...All the tracks are gems !!

Frank Sinatra.

It seems that the record company decided to do a "Mix" of Sinatra's singles on this L/P or so it seems !! starting with a "Swinger" then a slow "Ballad"all thro' the L/P... all orchestrations by "Nelson Riddle" from the "Capitol" stable !!
