Holiday For Lovers
CD (Item 393699) Mode/VSOP, 1957 — Condition: New Copy
One of the rarest records on the Mode label, and one of the few we've ever seen from this obscure west coast vocalist! The record features Johnny singing with some great LA jazz backing – an octet that features Herb Geller, Marty Paich, Jack Sheldon, Ronnie Lang, Mel Lewis, and Bob Enevoldsen. In fact, the group's so great that Johnny's vocals sometimes have trouble keeping up with the perfection – but that's also part of the charm of the set, which feels like some of the more obscure vocal material recorded for Bethlehem at the same time: nice and honest, with the kind of intimate club feel you'd get from some local vocal hero in a small city nightclub. Titles include "Nobody Else But me", "I Love You", "Love Me Now", "Boys & Girls Like You & Me", and "Star Eyes". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
