“Music for Relaxing (Vol. 1)”  Enoch Light Orchestra  Belter Records (Spain)   A sweet take on the Woody Herman album cover of the same title that we’ve posted in the past.  There’s something about girl lounging on pillows with records on the floor.  A theme that we see repeatedly on covers from around the world.  A nice cheesecake illustration on this one (Signed by VALTZ)

Grazin’ in the grass

bachelors 001

The Bachelors  “Bachelors’ Girls”  Decca Records (Australia)  A couple of notes of interest.  I believe that Jimmy Page plays on this and one of the “girls” on the cover is “Miss Lovey Kravezit”, Dean Martin’s secretary in “The Silencers”.
