Fake Friends - Let's Not Overthink This [VINYL LP] date 02/13/2026

Famed New York violinist Raoul Poliakin is highly regarded as a conductor of popular orchestral music. As a violinist, arranger, conductor, he has appeared on countless albums, including those of Frank Sinatra, Antonio Carlos Jobim and Wes Montgomery, to name a few. On this classic 1960 audiophile recording, the Music of Richard Rodgers / the Music of Harold Arlen, Poliakin's imaginative reinterpretations of major American standard songs results in a unique listening experience. In addition to Poliakin's authoritative conducting, the striking attractiveness of these arrangements are underlined by the flawless quality of sound, made possible by techniques developed by master engineers working at the beginning of the stereo era. For this album Poliakin conducts a 54-man orchestra and a 20-voice choir. All selections have been newly remastered.
