Mancini: "Two For The Road" OST

Playing this Tuesday afternoon:
*HENRY MANCINI - "The Mancini Touch" c. 1960
RCA Victor #LPM-2101
Recording Engineer: Al Schmitt

Recorded at RCA Victor's Music Center of The World, Hollywood, CA, on August 10, 11 & 14, 1959.

Shelly Manne via Contemporary Records (another favorite artist of mine) is a guest studio musician with Mancini (drums) on the album.

A great album! Every cut a classic, and even on an original RCA mono the sonics and clarity absolutely soar on my stereo. Highly impressed.

Translation: Don't wait to buy a Mancini album. If you like the quality of the vinyl, like the album's price, buy it! I've never had a Mancini album where I said: "I can't stand this music, I'll never play it again".

BTW, has anyone seen the "Living Stereo" version?, posted on November 6, 2009 at 16:32:00

That's the CD but I suppose it's on LP as well.
