CD Reviews

An old favorite

Eolia | 11/20/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I first heard this album as an LP in the 1950's. I played it so many times, it made me long to go to Spain, and I did in the early 1980's. For a long time this Michel Legrand recording was not available on CD. He did a series of albums that reflected the music of a particular country: I Love Paris, and Holiday in Rome. I had all three LP's then and hope to have all three CD's now. I just never tire of these Legrand recordings and hearing the background sounds peculiar to a country.Just makes it easier to recall my visits to Rome, Paris and Seville."

THE BEST FROM LEGRAND

"
IN MY PERSONAL OPINION, THIS IS THE ALBUM THAT BETTER REMEMBER FROM LEGRAND. MY FATHER BUYED THE LP WHEN I WAS A TEENAGER AND I WERE FASCINATED WITH IT. I STILL HAVE THE OLD LP AND IWAS VERY HAPPY WHEN I FIND IT WITH YOU IN CD.

I'M 64 YEARS OLD AND A FAN OF THE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC AND BALLADS OF THE LATE 50'S AND 60'S.

I Found an Old Friend

"I had searched for this album in CD form for years having worn out the black vinyl. Finally it showed up, having been just re-issued in 2007. On first playing, I was a little disappointed with the clipped fidelity, but after all, it was originally recorded in 1956.

After that original playing, I found myself listening to it over and over. This unique orchestration could be played in the concert hall as a continuous piece. You are transported from the dance hall, to the bullfights, to the "Castles in Spain". Not to be missed!!!"
