Honky Tonk - Studio "B" Seven Bell cut a niche for itself in the early fifties by being the lowest priced pop label on the market selling through previously unexplored avenues of distribution, such as dime stores, bookstores and department stores but that didn t mean the artists featured were below par, far from it. Top New York Jazz and R&B musicians and arrangers were used to provide hits for the likes of Tom & Jerry (Simon & Garfunkel), Bob Miller and Edna McGriff. CD3 1. Singing The Blues - Bruce Adams 2.

Ed K. from LACEY, WA
Reviewed on 12/31/2021...
All of these songs are 'covers' of Hot100 hits. Only the very first song has any real merit; "Baby Talk" by "Tom & Jerry" (aka Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel), which at least approaches the "Jan & Dean" version in artistic quality. The musical artistry is drowned out by poor acoustics, though. Bell was a price-cutting effort until they acquired some real talents that made a name for themselves ... on Bell. What is on three CDs could easily have fit on just two ... 30 per disc instead of 20.

If you are searching for obscurities, this is a good choice for finding them.
