COLIN HOLMES ILL THIS WEEK NO SHOW ON TUESDAY LAST.

 Due to Colin Holmes  illness on Tuesday there was no Easy Listening show. He returns on Friday
morning for " Tudno talks" and we will back next Tuesday evening for his normal Easy Listening show.

PATTI PAGE US HITS 48-62 ON COLIN HOLMES EASY LISTENING SHOW JANUARY 19TH 2016

PATTI PAGE..THE COMPLETE US HITS 1948-1962....WWW.ACROBAT MUSIC.NET (3CDS.85 TRACKS)

Tracks played...
Left right out of your heart / Fibbin' / Trust in me / Two thousand,two hundred and twenty three miles / One of us will weep tonight / I wish I'd never been born / A city girl stole my country boy / Mom and dad's waltz / You'll answer to me / Go on home / Most people get married / The boy's night out.

Amazingly with a three Cd set covering eighty five tracks there are still some Patti Page hits missing.
All my love ( from the forties) and Hush Hush sweet Charlotte ( from the sixties ) so the title the Complete Hits is not quite accurate. A lot of country chart hits are included  as well as good standard vocalizing and curious novelty hits. A bargain for the price and for Patti Page fans perhaps some missed releases from the days of singles.

MICHAEL BUBLE "TO BE LOVED" ON COLIN HOLMES EASY LISTENING SHOW JANUARY 5TH 2016.

TO BE LOVED...MICHAEL BUBLE.REPRISE.

The last new Buble album released in Britain. I gave this four stars last time I reviewed it and have not altered my opinion since. It has standout gems amongst the choices for the album but generally it seemed a rag-bag of some unusual Buble material that simply wasn't as good as previous selections.
His Christmas album still stands tall reaching the British charts for the third time.

tracks played...
You make me feel so young / Who's lovin' you / To love somebody / Come dance with me / Close your eyes / Have I told you lately that I love you / I got it easy.
