Music To Watch Girls By

Lenny Breau (August 5, 1941–August 12, 1984) was known for blending many styles of music including: jazz, country, classical and flamenco guitar. Breau, inspired by country guitarists like Chet Atkins, used fingerstyle techniques not often used in jazz guitar. Released in 1968, 'Guitar Sounds' was reissued on CD in 2005 by Wounded Bird Records. The re-issue includes one bonus track, "Call Me".

Ray Conniff had constantly innovate on sound since the mid 50s with the blending of voices and instruments. The combination gives a sort of smoothness in the sound of the music which cannot be reproduced with instruments alone. His adoption of the fast swinging rhythm introduces "life" and "color" to his music. The two discs album includes his all time favourites "'S Wonderful", "The Way You Look Tonight" and Tchaikovsky's "First Piano Concerto" which are almost synonymous with his name. I really enjoyed the two discs album even after 50 years. With modern digital remastering and believe me or not the CDs sounded even better with the same speakers which I designed 50 years ago, but with modern electronics. I will not hesitate to recommend the album to old Hi Fi enthusiast like myself.

This album encapsulates a period in the late 50s and early 60s when jazz influenced sounds merged with pop and formed a unique blend of glamour fused with music and entertainment. Good looking crooners like Bobby Darin, Tom Jones effectively invented the term ‘Cool’ along with The Rat Pack (Dean Martin Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jnr) along with their ‘kid brother’ Paul Anka who would eventually write Sinatra’s classic My Way.

The Best Sixties Album contains the defining tracks of the decade and features some of the biggest hits from artists including Scott McKenzie, The Byrds, The Moody Blues, Del Shannon, Andy Williams, Sly & The Family Stone, Aretha Franklin, Johnny Cash, Tammy Wynette and many more.
