Playlist image Favoriting

Artist Track Album Label Year Format Comments Approx. start time
Members of The Glenn Miller Orchestra  In the Mood   Favoriting In the Miller Mood  Crown  1969  LP    0:00:00 (Pop-up)
Jonah Jones with the Jubilee Four, Dick Hyman and the New Disciples of Rhythm  The Lonesome Road   Favoriting That Righteous Feelin'  Capitol  1963  LP    0:03:32 (Pop-up)
Buddy Morrow and His Orchestra  Hey, Mr. Bones   Favoriting Dancing Tonight To Morrow  RCA Victor  1959  LP  Whoever said the dance-band business was dead? If so, there's a very lively ghost by the name of Buddy Morrow busily fulfilling engagements at colleges and ballrooms throughout the country. Judging from the never-empty dance floor at all of his dates, there is no record hop that can ever replace the live music of a swinging name band.  0:05:31 (Pop-up)
Ted Heath & His Music  Sentimental Journey   Favoriting Satin, Strings & Bouncing Brass  London Phase 4 Stereo  1963  LP  A touch of echo on the exposed drummer's microphone (left) is all that was needed to give our musical locomotive the sound of its hissing steam; a turning figure on the saxophpnes (left) has them sliding as wheels on a wet track; and for a sound that pierces as penetratingly as any train whistle in the night, listen to what two soprano saxophones (left) written in harmony and a high register can do! No train has ever travelled to better sounds: trombones' percussive stabs, trumpets' brilliant jabs, bongos' jolting cracks (all right), and, ultimately the whole band, loud and clear, like a streamlined express. But, upon arrival, worked and spent, this iron horse comes to a slow stop, its momentum curtailed by the drummers' brush strokes (left), the slippery saxophone turns (also left).  0:10:51 (Pop-up)
The Mariachi Brass featuring Chet Baker  Pennsylvania 6-5000   Favoriting In the Mood  World Pacific  1966  LP  There are no limitations today on the sources from whence popular music emanates. The excitement generated by the creation of new groups and new sounds has developed an environment which bristles with zestful melodies.  0:13:23 (Pop-up)
The Living Marimbas  Patricia   Favoriting Georgy Girl and Other Music to Watch Girls By  RCA Camden  1967  LP  Join in the escapades of the Living Marimbas as they travel through some of your favorites tunes and adventure into exciting sounds of the pop music scene today.  0:15:22 (Pop-up)
Johnny Puleo and his Harmonica Gang  The Peanut Vendor   Favoriting S/T  Audio Fidelity  1957  LP    0:17:39 (Pop-up)
Enoch Light & The Light Brigade  Cecilia   Favoriting Let It Be  Project 3  1972  LP  The magnificent quality of sounds that originate from the Enoch Light Orchestra have never been more profoundly brilliant than they are in this exclusive selection of some of the best known songs ever written and recorded. Put on the music – relax – and let your mood dictate how you want to spend the next forty minutes. LET IT BE!  0:19:34 (Pop-up)
Pete Fountain  I Know A Place   Favoriting A Taste of Honey  Coral  1966  LP  Most of the tunes Pete has chosen made the ascent into the Top Forty recently. Any tune that attains such elevation is, of course, inescapable. It penetrates the consciousness somewhere, via records, radio or TV. Sometimes the penetration is not at first agreeable, but repetitions are not always vain. With familiarity may come tolerance, then acceptance, and finally an amused pleasure.  0:22:13 (Pop-up)
Wes Montgomery  California Dreaming   Favoriting California Dreaming  Verve  1966  LP    0:24:29 (Pop-up)
Jimmy McGriff  Cute   Favoriting The Big Band  Solid State  1966  LP    0:27:25 (Pop-up)
Harry Breur and his Quintet  Bumble Bee Bolero   Favoriting Mallet Magic  Audio Fideltiy  1957  LP  Practically all music lovers have an irresistible fascination for percussion instruments. Who hasn't put himself in the place of the percussionist who holds the spotlight when he crashes the cymbals together to mark the storm in Rossini's "William Tell Overture" ?  0:34:04 (Pop-up)
Klaus Wunderlich Elec**** Trick Piano  Java   Favoriting Sound 2000 2  Telefunken  1973  LP    0:36:12 (Pop-up)
Richard Maltby  St. Louis Blues Mambo   Favoriting LIFE of the Party  RCA  1972  LP  Having a party? A good way to get everyone in the right mood is to play this party record created especially for a swinging soiree... The names are famous, the moods are varied, so that whatever the musical tastes of your friends and neighbors you can't fail, with such ingredients, to create for yourself, and become the "Life of the Party".  0:38:38 (Pop-up)
Robert Maxwell (His Harp and Orchestra)  Adios   Favoriting Peg O' My Heart  Decca  1964  LP  These songs, and others, are guaranteed to provide untold hours of the most pleasurable listening, and that promise HAS strings attached... the strings of Robert Maxwell's inimitable harp.  0:41:04 (Pop-up)
Marino Marini and his Quartet  Guaglione   Favoriting Welcome To Italy  London    LP  "We will bring some of our sunshine and music to your country" seems to be the Marini motto and indeed one can feel the pulsating heart of Naples in their music... guitars and voices that murmur words of love, the notes of a piano suggesting a fashionable melody in the discreet shadows of a night club, crazy and gay songs of the equally crazy and gay youth; there is nothing affected in their performances and maybe the Marini secret lays in its simplicity of style, perfection and timing and genuine enthusiasm–in one word–every note comes straight from the heart.  0:42:59 (Pop-up)
The String-A-Longs  Black is Black   Favoriting Wide World Hits  ATCO  1968  LP  The String-A-Longs have taken some of the wide world vocal hits and have added their own very special luster to good melodies that were first vocals, then they have added their soft touch to songs meant to be instrumentals.  0:45:54 (Pop-up)
The Toronadoes  Beatle Hair   Favoriting Taste of Honey / Tijuana Style  Design  1966  LP    0:48:45 (Pop-up)
Heidi Bachert  My Boy Lollipop   Favoriting Die Spitzenreiter 1964  Polydor  1964  LP    0:51:01 (Pop-up)
King Curtis  One Mint Julep (Medley)   Favoriting           0:56:46 (Pop-up)

Ah yes, those "rent gigs" Chet Baker did with the Mariachi Brass when he was in a bad way. Kinda like Bruce Willis' last films.

Love those Living Marimbas, btw, was wondering how many Sound Gallery denizens were involved

Was that "Downtown"? Sounded more like "I Know A Place."

If it's cool, it must be "Provocative Percussion."

All this tinkling of organ has got me thinking, I better get outa bed!

boy, how 'bout the backhanded complements in those Pete Fountain liners? Translation: "Here's a bunch of that rock n roll crap, some of it so bad it gets kinda funny."
Old people!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:32pm
Austin Rich:

Liner notes are a whole genre unto themselves. I miss albums with a huge diatribe on the back about how important the album is.
Avatar 4:35pm
Rubberband Girl:

I am compelled to recite some of them throughout the show, but I don't want to interrupt the flow of the music, so... will prob try it soon, tho!
Avatar 4:36pm
Mr Fab:

Yeah, and I miss all-harmonica groups! i wonder if there have been any in the last 50 years or so.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:36pm
Austin Rich:

We should have a show where we just "read" the backs of our records.

Hi folks.

DJ RBG, I have been listening but too busy to write more than this greeting and thanks for the tunes. Interesting playlist that I will replay when can listen more closely.
Avatar 4:46pm
Mr Fab:

"crazy and gay songs of the equally crazy and gay youth" I think it's been about 20 years since i heard someone use the word "gay" in that sense. i wonder if that's now considered an archaic use of the word. (haven't checked any new dictionaries lately).
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:49pm
Austin Rich:

Next you gotta play that "Beatle Boots" song.
Avatar 4:50pm
Muddyrich:

Looks like there was some actual beatle hair on the record!

Rubberband Girl:

Yes, Muddy XD

Muddyrich:

I have had a nice Del-Fi Beatle cash-in 45 since before I had any Beatles records...i might have been vaguely aware of them, they were certainly no Monkees in my 5 year old world
Avatar 4:52pm
David in California:

Mr. Fab, it's been longer than that since I've heard it used that way. I remember Dick Cavett complaining about its use by homosexuals, and saying does that mean heterosexuals are "glums", and that was on his ABC show 50 years ago.
