Does The Sun Really Shine On The Moon?
LP (Item 4234) Skye, 1968 — Condition: Used
A wonderful album from the great Gary McFarland – and completely sublime all the way through! The record's part jazz, part easy, and all McFarland, with a cool compressed breezy vibe that's just about impossible to describe accurately. Gary's vibes are wonderfully set in a small combo with reeds by Jerome Richardson, bass by Richard Davis, organ by Warren Bernhardt, and guitar by Sam Brown. The group play haunting, almost-invisible versions of 60s pop tunes, like "God Only Knows", "Here, There & Everywhere", and "O Morro" – plus a jaunty McFarland original called "Flea Market". (Original Skye pressing in a glossy gatefold cover, with a stain and some flaking on the bottom inch.) © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
