Antonio Pedro Hatch - The Cool Latin Sound (1968)






















What better way to get set for a snowy weekend than with this cool album from Antonio Pedro, AKA Tony Hatch.

One of my favourite albums.  Here's Birds.

Sounds Orchestral - Words (1968)






















This site is just like a bus.  Nothing for ages and  then two come along at once.  This one should make the audiophiles a little happier, not so much crackle and pop.

Includes the best version of Soul Coaxing too, I reckon and a great version of Donovan's Jennifer Juniper.

Mike Leander Orchestra - Together (1969)





















Firstly, a belated happy New Year to you all.  Secondly, apologies for the lack of posts since before Christmas.  Sometimes life just gets in the way.  Anyway, I'm back on track now with these nice LP from Mike Leander, best known for writing and producing a lot of Gary Glitter's hits in the 70s.

Unfortunately, this album is a little scratchy, particularly after our cat jumped on the turntable while I was recording it!  Still, hopefully that won't spoil your enjoyment too much.
