“Red Velvet”   Stanley Black and his Orchestra   London Records   This ubiquitous dollar record is easy listening pablum.   Aural wallpaper.   The cover is pretty tame, lifeless and unsexy, but it does have a fifties babe surrounded by LP’s and a sweet console.

Here’s a truely generic recording with a sweet little sleeve.   No artists credited just the following back note “A very fine performance by both Musicians and Singing Artists, a very stimulating record”   And one of the six covers is called “Alternate Title” ?   Avenue Records   London, England   (1967)     Nice lo-fi player too!

Verde Campina y otros exitos del Junior   Odeon Records   These are some of my favorite covers, a collector surrounded by his records, next to a big old turntable.     I’ve put this in the “Just Happy” category, cuz I think he is!
