The Tony Nolte Television Orchestra - Eén van de Acht

Tony Nolte Television Orchestra
Eén van de Acht
During the seventies one of the most popular televison-quizz-programms in Holland was "Eén van de Acht", invented and hosted by Mies Bouwman. (In England known as "The Generation game, and in Germany as: Am Laufenden Band) Ever when this show was aired on dutch television it was quiet on the streets. At that time is was usual to have a live orchestra on stage. The Tony Nolte television orchestra excisted of the best Dutch musicians of that time. This record has always been in my top-ten favourite collection , and has the best renditions I've heard sofar of Wishin'and Hopin', Canto de Ossanha, Up Up and Away and Matrimony. Judge for yourself.

James Last - In Scandinavia (1970)

In Scandinavia
Polydor 2371-113 (1970)

James Last ist immerhin schon einige Wochen 80 Jahre alt, die Ehrungen reißen allerdings nicht ab. Hansi ist erst kürzlich noch einmal von seinem Label gefeiert worden, hat einen Vertrag auf Lebenszeit, hat einen Elbdampfer gemietet und etlicher Laudatoren Ergüsse zu hören bekommen ... und war im Frühling für etwa zwei Dutzend Konzerte unter dem Motto "Mit 80 Jahren um die Welt" unterwegs. So. Und bevor das untergeht: 2010 wird die Tour fortgesetzt, James Last wird mit seinem Orchester zumindest durch Skandinavien und Großbritannien ziehen. Urlaube können ab sofort geplant werden ...

Les Humphries Singers - We'll Fly You To The Promised Land (1972)

- Les Humphries Singers -
We'll Fly You To The Promised Land (1972)
Decca 6376 100 S
The Les Humphries Singers performed a mix of popular music and gospel covers and had some success in Europe with this approach. Much like contemporary German act Boney M., their music focused on Rhythm and blues, gospel, and disco, but often with psychedelic phasing or flanger effects on solos and bridges, and, much like James Last, much larger background choruses in the studio to emulate a live atmosphere.The Les Humphries Singers at the time brought something from the flair of the hippie movement into contemporary German-produced (but English-sung) pop music, especially due to their mixed ethnic background and peculiar fashion sense

Gene Rains - Lotus Land

- Gene Rains - Lotus Land -
(rar file contains a mono and a stereo recording)
Gene Rains is a vibraphonist and leader of the Gene Rains Group, a jazz quartet from Hawaii that played a musical style known as Exotica. Rains' short career spanned the early to the mid 1960's and consisted of 4 LP recordings released on Decca Records and the Vocalion label. These LPs were released during the golden era of Hawaiian and Exotica music and the Tiki culture in the United States. The Gene Rains Group repertoire featured popular Hawaiian and Polynesian Island melodies as well as popular American tunes of the era.
Gene Rains was "discovered" by the enormously popular Hawaiian crooner of the era,
Alfred Apaka. At the time, Apaka was the talent director for the Hawaiian Village Hotel in Waikiki, Hawaii. Apaka recruited the Gene Rains Group to perform in the Shell Bar at the Hawaiian Village, which was THE hot spot for the Island's top performers, including Martin Denny and Arthur Lyman. It was also Alfred Apaka who introduced Rains to Decca Records.
Today, Rains is considered the third man of Exotica, behind Martin Denny and Arthur Lyman. Although he did not achieve the level of notoriety of Denny or Lyman, Rains' albums nonetheless are textbook examples of the style of Exotica. With the resurgence of the Tiki culture in the late 1990's and into the early 2000's, Gene Rains' albums have become much sought after by collectors of the genre
