Off Beat Cha Cha - All Star Orchestra (1965)



Here comes another great post from our friend Al Gates from Perth, West Australia!

A very nice 60s dancing album from Asia, it is quite the curio, and a very interesting listen, as most of the albums shared here and elsewhere are from Europe and North and South America!

Highlights include fine versions of You Belong To My Heart, Sukiyaki, Moon River, and a song made famous by one of my dad's favourites, Jim Reeves, in He'll Have To Go.

Thanks again to Al for these posts, and best wishes for the festive season, too!

Should anyone else reading this, like Al, have some albums they would also like to share, but do not have a blog of their own, please do send me the links, and if they are in keeping with the tone of the rest of the blog's material, could well end up on this blog being shared with hundreds of other Easy Listening enthusiasts!

I have more treats to share over the holiday, so please stay posted!

I hope you enjoy it and please comment if you do!

I'm In The Mood For Dancing - Mick Urry & His Orchestra (1985)

 


Courtesy of our friend Al Gates of Perth, Australia comes this rather nice album of ballroom dance music from the 1980s.

If you like Joe Loss, Ray McVay and others you will like this, too!

Thanks to Al for another fine post and please keep them coming!

I hope you enjoy it and please comment if you do!

Instrumental Favourites - Geoff Love & His Orchestra

 


I recently came across the seven volumes of Geoff Love's Instrumental Favourites collection, so I thought it would be good to make a compilation of the tracks on them recorded especially i.e not the tracks off previous albums (which have generally been blogged themselves).

I think it makes for a good collection, it should come to three volumes when finished, so here is the first one.

I hope you enjoy it and please comment if you do!
