Stereo Spectacular

The concept of the Stereo record is barely a decade old in this country, but it is as much a part of today's musical scene as the family gathering around the piano was in the last century. Stereo has brought the full sound of the human voice and the musical instrument back into the home, but in a bigger and better way.

Sing Somethin Simple - The Adam Singers

Feeling in the mood for some musical relaxation? Them (sic.) just sit back and enjoy the work of a team who really know what easy listening is all about.

On this album the Adam Singers vocal charm works like a dream and creates the kind of listening pleasure that can only leave you asking for more. And that's why the "Sing Something Simple" formula is one of the most popular sounds around.

The Sweet Sounds Of Tijuana

The sound of Tijuana music is the sound of sunshine music that is gay, lively and filled with the kind of happiness that only The Border Brass can convey. The titles are a recommendation in themselves for musical enjoyment, having been penned by talents like Burt Bacharach and Hal David, Nino Rota, Jim Webb and John Barry.

But more than the greatness of the compositions themselves is the pure musical enjoyment that The Border Brass put into every track. It's as infectious as as the sound of border sunshine and once it's been sampled there's only one thing to do - and that's to sample it again and again.
