| | Very Best Of Bert Kaempfert CD (1995)
16 Most Requested Songs songs
$14.35 Recorded between 1960 and 1967. Includes liner notes by Steve Kolanjian.
Digitally remastered by Eliot Goshman (1995, Taragon Studios, Deer Park, New York).
Beginning with Louis Armstrong, through Harry James and Bobby Hackett of the Jackie Gleason Orchestra, the trumpet was once a king in pop music. This was true even in '60s-era easy listening, as demonstrated by the success of Al Hirt, Herb Alpert, and the ultra-shrewd German musician Bert Kaempfert, who probably was as responsible as anyone else in rehabilitating Germany's post-war world image. The Taragon label is re-releasing all of Kaempfert's many albums in an ambitious reissue project. This excellent compilation is the one to have however.
As well as being a successful composer ("Strangers in the Night," "Spanish Eyes," "Danke Schon," "L.O.V.E" are all his compositions), Kaempfert was an even better producer, ...
| | Ray Conniff 'S Always Conniff CD (1992)
16 Most Requested Songs album
$7.59 This 25-track album, recorded live in Tokyo in December 1991, demonstrates that, decades after his commercial heyday in his native country, Ray Conniff successfully continued to pursue his vision of cheery, swing-derived arrangements of familiar tunes. The set list is heavy on Broadway show tunes from Anything Goes to Phantom of the Opera, but there is also room for everything from "An Improvisation ...
| | Ray Conniff It Must Be Him/Honey CD (2002)
16 Most Requested Songs CD music
$10.55 A good matchup of two similar and consecutive LP releases is offered on this discount-priced two-fer. It Must Be Him and Honey were Ray Conniff's first two albums of 1968, and they were among his more successful, each enjoying a long chart run and earning gold record certification. Conniff had updated his arranging style by this point, adapting himself to the rock revolution by bringing in electric guitars and beefing up the sound of the rhythm section, but he hadn't changed his basic approach. All 22 tracks here are his versions of songs that were in the pop charts between 1964 and 1968, originally recorded by the likes of British Invasion acts like the Beatles and Herman's Hermits as well as a slew of middle-of-the-road pop singers. Some of the songs, notably "Yesterday," "Sounds of Silence," ...

| | Meet Red Meat CD (1997)
16 Most Requested Songs songs
$11.59 This debut is an exhilarating introduction to the Bay Area honky tonk scene from the band leading the pack, Red Meat. Proud of the heritage they are carrying into the next millennium, Red Meat makes no bones about their affinity for Buck Owens, Don Rich and the Bakersfield sound. "Highway of Heartaches" is one heck of a ride right down the middle of the old San Joaquin Valley in spirit and content. Texas swing is given a facelift as they dive into "Texas-Texas," while their humor is ...
| | John Tejada Daydreams In Cold Weather CD (2002)
16 Most Requested Songs album
$13.19 John Tejada is one of a growing number of DJs and producers who got their start in Detroit-style techno but have moved well beyond its stylistic borders, incorporating elements of hip-hop, downtempo, classic funk, and found sound to create a style that manages to balance nicely between avant-garde experimentation and booty-shaking dance funk. At his best, Tejada draws hugely disparate ...

| | Samara Lubelski Spectacular Of Passages CD (2005)
16 Most Requested Songs music CDs
$13.05 Very organic and earthy sounding, Samara Lubelski has a soft, folksy pop vocal that brings to mind the velvet style of Juliana Hatfield, especially on the relaxing, hypnotic opener "Lick 'N Leap" that glides along effortlessly. Not quite haunting but still evoking fragile, angelic-like imagery, Lubelski takes great care to stick to her dreamy, lullaby strengths on Spectacular of Passages. "Sister Silver" has a tad more pop-oriented punch or bite within, but is hauntingly driven by Lubelski's hushed tone. This is revisited and is more forceful during the rather catchy "Broken Links," which resembles a Belle & Sebastian tune."Snow White Feathered Man" seems like it was recently uncovered in some '70s time vault along with unreleased tracks by the Moody Blues, with gentle touches complemented by some lush orchestral strings. It's quite majestic and never loses its charm, particularly with the care and tenderness given to the folk-meets-hippie psychedelia of "Magic Winding." The greatest asset so many of these songs share is their ability to draw you in and get you hooked without the slightest ...
