LAST JAMES On The Rocks (Remastered)

Popis:

“JAMES LAST ROCKS THE HITS!” boasts the cover of this exciting und unusal compilation by Germanys international music icon. James Last and rock music? How does that fit? Very well indeed! In the 1960s and 1970s, the “Party King” discovered the international rock scene for his song book and recorded hits and highlights by Bob Dylan, Creedence Clearwater Revival, John Lennon, Neil Diamond, Santana, The Sweet, Van Morrison, The Eagles, Bob Marley, The Animals, and many others. Not only his millions of fans were enthusiastic about it, music critics and sometimes even the original artists agreed: his versions of the hits of the day were up there with the best music in the international charts.

The 4-CD set “James Last On The Rocks” assembles for the first time all of James Last’s rocking nuggets, recorded with a group of singers he personally selected in London’s recording studios: his JAMES LAST COMPANY consisted of Sue Glover and Sunny Leslie (of Brotherhood of Man), Margo Quantrell and Jean Ryder (of the Breakaways), Lyn Cornell (of the Pearls), Kay Garner (of the Ladybirds), Tony Burrows (of Edison Lighthouse), plus studio singers Neil Lancaster and Peter Barnfather. The are the core of James Last’s groovy rock sound!
