CABARET NIGHT IN PARIS/PART 1 & 2 33S 1008/33S 1043 (-54) UK

Two records highly recommended to anyone interrested in 20th century music or just high quality composing and performing. All tracks transferred from 78 rpm:s to 33 allowing you to enjoy the warmth and directness of the originals with vinyl quality. Back then there were few adjustments or overdubs, some cuts were made using one microphone and a single take was expected. With that in mind I'm amazed by the skill and discipline they had. Orchestras, vocals, solos, quires - all perfectly conveying feelings and intentions. This is the best from the contemporary French songbook - top artists doing classic songs, of wich some were translated to other languages and became big hits elsewhere. These are the original recordings as close and early as you can get on LP. I love it and frequently use it as background music to get in the mood. My favorite Trenet´s "La Mer" may be one of the most played and covered songs since then, but his original still deliver with the fantastic orchestral arrangement and quire. First UK 10 inch with labels as shown here and fully laminated covers with "crescent" flips. (NYFÖ*) (CLÄZ*) (GZÅ*)
