Percy Faith

Andre Kostelanetz

Sony/Bmg Int'l, 2001

Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!! What a find, what a jewel.
When I was a teenager, I loved the Beatles and their song "Yesterday". I also loved the Monkeys. However, I had a side of me that loved Johnnie Mathis' song "The Shadow of Your Smile" and then my all time favorite albums were ones by Andre Kostelanetz. When John ...

Sweet Dreams

Edvard Grieg, Engelbert Humperdinck, ...

Sony, 1989

A slow jam tape of classical music
This is a great collection of slow stuff for classical heads and people who simply have a light appreciation for the form. The songs consist of some standards and some less-than-obvious choices, but all great stuff. While it's being marketed as a children's lullaby ...

More George Wright At The Mighty Wurlitzer Organ Volume 3

Richard Adler, Anonymous, ...

Legacy, 1999

Outstanding Organ Music
If you enjoy the sounds that the mighty Wurlitzer Pipe Organ can produce - you'll enjoy this album. George Wright is probably the best ever at mastering the multiple banks of keys and pedals of this complex instrument, and the music is very relaxing and entertaining. ...

Christmas Magic: A Holiday Collection

Leroy Anderson, Benjamin R. Hanby, ...

BMG Special Products, 2000

Good back ground holiday music!
The price of this cd makes it more than worth the price and it contains various well known Christmas recording stars. However, for some reason I don't find this cd as enjoyable as other Christmas collaborations made up of various recording stars. While all the songs ...

Hard to Find Orchestral Instrumentals II

Charles Albertine, Gilbert Becaud, ...

Eric Records, 2003

Keep 'Em Coming, Bill Buster
Back in 2002, one thing I shared with many other completist collectors of hit singles from the 1950s and 1960s was ever seeing a CD version of the George Cates version of Moonglow And The Theme From "Picnic." I wrote to Bill Buster of Eric Records about that [and ...

Christmas Is...

Irving Berlin, Katherine K. Davis, ...

Sony, 1991

Blast from the past. Could not find anywhere else but Amazon
Thanks for having a very hard to find product. The memories of childhood roll back as I listen. Christmas Is, the soundtrack to my adolescent Xmas time. Used to sing in a Madrigal Choir in Iowa. Mr Schneider wherever you are I hope you are doing well.
