The Spinners were the greatest soul group of the early '70s, creating a body of work that defined the lush, seductive sound of Philly soul.
"Mythology" is a very classy offering, a symphonic new age journey style crossover album that falls into a category somewhere between Enigma, Deep Forest, Vangelis and Mike Oldfield. There are lush orchestrations and memorable themes, and melodies laced with great guitar and keyboard work all held together by wonderfully atmospheric vocals and vocal textures by the renowned soprano Catherine Foster. The album is split into three suites; “The Nordic Suite”, “Suite of the Ancients” and “The Americas Suite”, and contain titles like “The Return of the Longships”, “Aurora” and “Eagle Dancers”. These all imply a magical journey - and that’s just what you get here, lush evocative melodious music - a soundtrack for the mind and soul.

With a sound that captures all the elegance, exuberance and flamboyance of the swinging ‘60s, Chaise Lounge delivers music that is high on style and sophistication. This Washington DC based ensemble of six accomplished musicians performs a groovy hybrid of pop-influenced jazz and swing that seems to both embody another era and belong to the present moment. Members playfully describe the group’s style as “ music that sounds like it was recorded at Capitol Recording Studios in 1962”, “early stereo” or “ perhaps lounge with a capital ‘L”.
