Eleventh Batch of Reups

Another interesting group of reups for you today - all requests. In addition to these, I had a request for Oiltown U.S.A., which I couldn't find, so I'll have to re-record it some fine day.

As before, links to all the reups are in the comments to this item. The links below take you to the original posts, where you can delight in my views on the music at hand.

All of these, with the exception of the Warner Color Fashion Show and the Hershy Kay-Virgil Thomson record, have been remastered, are in lossless format and most should have much better sound than the original posts.

Abbe Lane - Where There's a Man

It's the sultry Cugat vocalist with a fine solo outing. Cugie makes an appearance on an awful novelty. LINK TO ORIGINAL POST

Carole Simpson - Singin' and Swingin'

Speaking of fine singing, here is the recently deceased Carole Simpson with a program of Steve Allen tunes. LINK TO ORIGINAL POST

Destination Moon

Leith Stevens' music for George Pal's 1949 fantasy of a moon landing. LINK TO ORIGINAL POST

The Wild One

More Leith Stevens, in much different mode for this, the original 10-inch version of the soundtrack to Brando's biker tale. I'll have to record the 12-inch version of this some day. LINK TO ORIGINAL POST

Kay - Western Symphony; Thomson - Filling Station

Two ballet scores in the Americana style, well done by the New York City Ballet orchestra and Leon Barzin. LINK TO ORIGINAL POST

Ralph Marterie - Dancing on the Down Beat

1952 recordings from the popular post-war dance band. I enjoyed this so much, I posted a Vic Damone-Marterie EP on my other blog, and will have another LP here soon. LINK TO ORIGINAL POST

Warner's Color TV Fashion Show

A 1957 record that was sent to department stores to promote a TV show featuring lingerie fashions. And you thought the Victoria's Secret programs were a new idea. Music by Michael Brown. LINK TO ORIGINAL POST
