PERRY COMO UNRELEASED/ PATTI PAGE ON COLIN HOLMES EASY LISTENING SHOW 29TH OCTOBER.

PERRY COMO.RARITIES FROM NASHVILLE. RCA/REAL GONE.

TRACKS PLAYED....Take a look at me/It was such a good day/I'll take my chance with you
                                    Somehow/Take me home/Love looks so good on you/Wonderful baby.

23 tracks including previously released "Just out or reach" album.The rest have not been released
before except a couple that have turned up on the slipside of certain singles. There are more
Como peformances still unreleased but these are the most recent. Mostly ballads, and some are
especially appealing from a very laid-back Como. he was always laid back you may say but
I suppose, not like this. Let's face it, this is a must for Como fans but the lack of excitement
not generated will limit it's sales.***.

PATTI PAGE. THE COMPLETE COLUMBIA SINGLES 1962-1970. COLUMBIA/REAL GONE.

TRACKS PLAYED...Can I trust you/Almost persuaded / Music and memories / This house
                                   Stand by your man/Drina / Days of the waltz /Promises/You don't need a heart.

Exceptional release of all of Patti Page's columbia singles over 8 years including all flip sides.
Commercial/country and Western music with inspired vocals on all tracks. her voice is superb.
Not all the tracks are as inspired as her singing but most flip sides are not throwaway extras.
Unappreciated here in Britain this album is an outstanding model for commercial singles versus
British groups in the sixties. Beautiful! ****.
