Paul Simon...320 Kbps

Here's Paul Simon on his own except on the track "My Little Town" which he is joined by his former singing partner "AG"....All the songs were written by Paul so you would say that they are contemporary songs of the mid 70's....there is one that is a bit of a puzzler and that is "Your Kind"....its got me stumped...

Andy Williams...320 Kbps

Here is some early recordings of Andy's from about 1961....all taken in a slow pace and dreamy which was his style....First time I've heard the "verse" to "Secret Love" didn't realise it had one till I heard this version.....Sorry for the worn track of "Misty" and others but I recon the person who had this before me must have definitely needed a new "Stylus" (Needle) !!

Eydie Gorme....320 Kbps

I think that there might be a pressing fault on the first side of this L/P or someone has played it with a knitting needle!!!....She has a hiss on all the words that begin with "S"....so to quote one of her tracks on here "I'm Sorry".....It was'nt new when I got it so I could'nt return it to the shop for a replacement....the second side is okay...Apart from that Eydie does a good job going "Country Style"


P.S. I think CBS should have titled this "Gorme Swings Country Style" !!!!

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 !!

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

1. Jeremiah

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

1. For The Good Times
2. The Hands Of Time
3. I Think Of You

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
4. My Love
5. The Dreamer

2. Walk Right Back.

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

1. Games Of Magic
