Henry Mancini - The Latin Sound Of (1965)

Sunny sounds for a sunny day.

Señor Peter Gunn

The Sound Gallery 2 - 27 Musical Masterpieces (1996)

Ah, the sun is shining at last so to celebrate here's Volume 2.

Paris Studio Group - Accroche Toi, Caroline

Paddy Kingsland - Fourth Dimension - BBC Radiophonic Workshop (1973)

Brilliant album from KPM and BBC Radiophonic stalwart Paddy Kingsland.  A bit crackly in places but I'm sure that won't spoil your enjoyment.  Vespucci

Simon Park Orchestra - Something In The Air (1974)

There's something in the air alright.  Rain.

Tony Hatch Sound - Beautiful In The Rain (1967)

Link collapsed due to DMCA complaint

Friday has arrived at last and here's a little something for the weekend.

Finito

Great Film Themes (1966)

Link collapsed due to DMCA complaint.

An album that have been hanging around unposted for quite a while.  Some nice interpretations on here, including Mike Leander's great version of The Silencers.

George Shearing - Strolling (1965)

Strolling

Robert James Orchestra - Take A Break (Studio 2 Stereo) (1972)

Mmm...couldn't find anything Royal to celebrate the Diamond Jubilee weekend here in the UK, so I thought I'd go for the next best thing...a record that I'm sure is in Her Majesty's collection. 

The Right One.

Edmundo Ros - Sing And Dance With Edmundo

In celebration of the continuing good weather here in the UK.

Ralph Dollimore - Music For A Special Evening (1968)

And why is it a special evening?  It's Eurovision!

Lenny Dee - Relaxin' (1967)

Phew! It's a right scorcher over here in Blighty at the moment.  I think the ladies on the cover must be a little hot too by the looks of it.  Anyway, grab a glass of lemonade and stick this on.

The Easy Project II - House Of Loungecore (1996)

Firstly, many apologies for not posting more regularly.  This is due to various reasons, the main one being the DMCA complaints that Blogger and Mediafire have been getting from our old friend Mr Ebay Wise.  It's got to the point, at least for me, where it all seems a bit pointless.  Fair enough, those old records are copyright, but really they're long out of print and I very much doubt anyone is losing financially over this page, but there you go.  My intention has never been to make any money from this blog - I have never received a penny - or a cent - or whatever currency you use - only to share great records I've bought over the last 30 years or so.

It's a shame that one vindictive individual can cause so many problems to people he will never know.

Les Humphries - Super Star Sound Piano Concerto (1972)

Wichita Lineman

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.

The Button Down Brass - Everybody's Talking (1971)

Not had any BDB on here for a while, so here's a nice LP to beat the mid-week blues.

Everybody's Talking

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.

The Letter

Pete Winslow - Last Tango In Paris (1973)

Mmm...now this one makes me suspicious.  I found this tucked away in my "Posting Possibility" folder on my PC.  I usually post stuff more or less as I record them but I did this way back in May, so that suggests to me that there's something wrong with it.  Apologies if that's the case.  I haven't listened to it. You never know though, I may have just forgotten about it.

Anyway, let me know if there's anything wrong with it.

Carmen Cavallaro - With That Latin Beat (1958)

Well, I finally got round to recording something new.  A sparkling album from Carmen Cavallaro.  Apologies for the crackles and pops.  Great album, though.

Not sure of the year though, late 50s, early 60s.

Enlloro

Laurie Johnson Orchestra - The New Big Sound Of (1963)

Another elsewhere post to keep things ticking over.
