Connie & Clyde – Hit Songs Of The 30s (with bonus tracks)

Out Of Stock

Add Item to Want List
CD (Item 579172) MGM/Jazzclub (Germany), 1968 — Condition: New Copy

Quite an unusual little album from Connie Francis – her attempt to join in on the Bonnie & Clyde album craze of the late 60s – but a set that's got a different feel than most! While others were steeped in country and bluegrass sounds, the approach here is mostly in a 30s pop vocal mode – playful arrangements from Don Costa, occasionally augmented to give them an "old time" feel in the studio – and vocals from Connie that are quite different than her usual pop modes – really changed up nicely to fit the different spirit of the tunes. Titles include "Ace In The Hole", "Gold Diggers Medley", "Connie & Clyde", "Maybe", "Button Up Your Overcoat", and "Am I Blue". CD also features some great bonus tracks – 8 more numbers that include "Sherry", "Walking Happy", "Will You Still Be Mine", "The Sweetest Sounds", and "My Kind Of Guy".  © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc.
