THE DRIFTERS ON COLIN HOLMES EASY LISTENING SHOW MAY 28TH 2019.

THE DEFINITIVE DRIFTERS... ATLANTIC / WARNER.

Tracks played.....
Dance with me /  This magic moment /  Save the last dance for me / I count the tears.
Some kind of wonderful / Please stay / Sweets for me sweet / When my little girl is
smiling / Up on the roof / On Broadway / Under the boardwalk / Saturday night at
the movies.

Plenty more tracks and hits on this 58 track album of almost everything they recorded.
Sadly the last quarter of the album ( the more recent commercial singles) don't come
up to the raw 60's feel of the first three quarters....however it's still a great buy and a great
party album.********.

COLIN HOLMES EASY LISTENING SHOW FEATURING ROY ORBISON'S NEW ALBUM. 22ND MAY 2019.

A LOVE SO BEAUTIFUL....SONY....ROY ORBISON. THE ROYAL PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA.

tracks played...
In dreams / Crying / Oh pretty woman / It's over / I drove all night.


Personally, i think this album seldon improves on the original recordings without
the Philharmonic. Occasionally it can improve the feel of a song in places, and I have
to admit the joining together of the original songs with the orchestra is not noticable .
The sound and clarity is there which helps a high volume Hi-Fi.********.
