The final installment in this Raven Records series, Vol. 4, focuses on the beat and pop ends of the musical spectrum, with choice cuts ranging from Johnny Young and Kompany’s ‘Step Back’, Billy Thorpe and the Aztecs’ ‘Over The Rainbow’ and The Cherokees’ ‘Minnie The Moocher’ to The Iguana’s ‘California, My Way’, Pastoral Symphony’s ‘Love Machine’ and The Flying Circus’ ‘Hayride’. Once again, this fine collection ends with several of the finest pop productions of the era in The Easybeats’ ‘St Louis’, Axiom’s ‘Arkansas Grass’ and King Fox’s ethereal ‘Unforgotten Dreams’.

ReplyDeleteThese are great Marty--any reason for only 128kb ?
ReplyDeletehello Stacky, no particular reason for the 128kb files, just the setting that was on at the time when I was ripping the tracks....I can redo at a higher rate if you want...
