Billy Vaughn - Billy Vaughn - Singles & EPs Collection 1954-62   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Billy Vaughn was one of the most successful orchestra leaders, conductors and arrangers in the post-war era, scoring more instrumental successes in the singles charts than any of his contemporaries in that sector of the market during the '50s and '60s. His distinctive sound, featuring his signature saxophone styling, was unmistakable, his chart successes comprising not only his own compositions, but also adaptations of current hits for the middle-of-the-road market. He began his career as a pianist, coming to fame when he formed The Hilltoppers vocal group in 1952 as pianist, songwriter, arranger and singer, and after a number of hits with them jumped ship to become musical director at the group's record tag Dot, for whom he arranged hits by many artists such as Pat Boone, Fontane Sisters, Gale Storm, Tab Hunter and Debbie Reynolds. However, he also recorded prolifically under his own name. This great value 96-track 3-CD set comprises the A & B sides of his US and UK singles during the period, plus selected tracks from six of his EPs, so is a comprehensive overview of his output on 45s from the era. It naturally features all the forty and more recordings which made some kind of chart showing, including the Top 10 hits InchMelody Of LoveInch, InchShifting, Whispering SandsInch InchRaunchyInch and InchSail Along Silvery MoonInch, as he flew the flag for a sound which defied the revolution that was changing the face of pop during the mid-'50s Billy Vaughn - Singles & EPs Collection 1954-62

BUNBURY - De Un Siglo Anterior   - CASSETTES

Limited edition cassette. de Un Siglo Anterior is BUNBURY's new work, and it is undoubtedly a celebration of the passage of time, looking to the future with enthusiasm and a capacity for surprise. Recorded in the Desierto de los Leones (Mexico), it was produced by BUNBURY himself together with Ramón Gacías. They entered the studio in February 2025 with the intention of delving into the possibilities of the combinations of Latinity with other genres, opening up to the harmonic and rhythmic possibilities of their patterns and lyrics. In August of the same year, they returned to the studio to finish the mixes and once in Los Angeles, Tom Baker was in charge of the mastering. Songs such as InchLa VozInch and InchUn Brindis al SolInch have already been advanced, and this album has an extraordinary repertoire of ten songs, where the musicians stand out for the richness of details in their interpretation. As BUNBURY himself says, InchWe wanted to create something that could only exist through the sensitivity of the musicians and the vulnerability of the voiceInch... InchLet the music and it's performers be the true protagonists.Inch
