The Many Faces of the Blues
A great jazz blues compilation on Savoy.
November, 2007
Olive the nightlife
Graham Forbes and the Trio “The Martini Set”. 1955.
Unlikely album for Sam Phillips to release. An album of pop standards from the big band era such as “From this moment on”, “The lady is a tramp”, “Autumn in New York”, etc. The reason this is so collectible is it came from Sam Phillips’ Sun Studios in Memphis. Very few printed at the time of release.
Hoodies
“Carnaval Carioca” Lyra De Xopoto. I don’t really have much context for this cover and can only imagine what the big Brazilian Carnival is like — Mardi Gras times ten. But Sinter, a Brazilian label, is a source of many great covers.
Kato and the Green Hornet
The Green Hornet with Bruce Lee as Kato. A Japanese single on 20th Century Records from the sixties.
