This is Denny's very first album, with some of his finest output.

Denny's great version of Les Baxter's "Quiet Village" was a #4 Pop hit. Album as a whole is highly enjoyable & a rich stereo experience for the audiophile! Track listing: 1.Quiet Village 2.Return To Paradise 3.Hong Kong Blues 4.Busy Port 5.Lotus Land 6.Similau 7.Stone God 8.Jungle Flower 9.China Nights 10.Ah Me Furi 11.Waipo 12.Love Dance.

- Electric Moog Orchestra-Music From Star Wars- LP- stereo-Musicor MUS-8801 - 1977 33 1/3 RPM LP release by the Electric Moog Orchestra. LP was a blatant
cash-in on the Star Wars phenomenon as well as the Moog craze of the 70's.
Group performs 6 tracks from the original Star Wars soundtrack by John
Williams. Sound of LP actually is quite good, combining Rock, Funk, and
Orchestral Moog effects. Band jams on the tracks with excellent flair
(sounds like real guitar and drums, with all other instruments played on
Moog synthesizers). Highlights include "Imperial Attack" (good beats and
breaks on this one), "Main Title" and "Princess Leia's Theme." Cover shows
moderate ringwear-no writing, tears, stains, or splits. Disc grades Near

- Garrett, Tommy- The 50 Guitars of-Maria Elena- LP- Stereo-Liberty LSS 14030 - 1963 release. Cool gatefold cover with cutout section to reveal pleading Spanish eyes. Latin-themed album- tunes include "Cherry Pink & Apple Blossom White", "Brazil" & "Jungle Drums". Garrett multiple tracks his guitar to provide guitar orchestra sound-does he really track it 50 times?! Who really knows? (A small group is also used) But it does make for a fine lounge-style listening experience. Very well-recorded in "Poly 120 StereoSound". Cover is nice, vinyl has a few very light marks but plays near mint. - (NM-/EXC+) - $10- Order
