Editorial Reviews

In 1970 and 1971, one of Columbia Records' most prolific and popular musicmakers, orchestra leader Percy Faith, produced two "concept" projects - "The Beatles Album" and "Jesus Christ Superstar" - that reflected the public's fascination with the two, and the joy their music brought to millions. On this reissue, the music of the Beatles and Andrew Lloyd Webber is meticulously presented by the capable hands of a master.

2 years ago my dad bought a percy faith cd and it was very good. I really like the way percy faith conducts his music. I'm 30 years old but apprecicate good violin music when I hear it. Percy faith plays the beatles and jesus christ superstar exellent. The only track on the beatles album I didn't know was because. But other than that I would reccomend this cd for easy listening fans everywhere.

THE BEATLES ALBUM FROM 1970 IS A GREAT ALBUM ON
CD.FAITH DOES BEAUTIFUL LUSH VERSIONS OF LET IT BE,HERE,
THERE,AND EVERYWHERE,NORWEGIAN WOOD,MICHELLE,SOMETHING
ELEANOR RIGBY,BECAUSE,THE FOOL ON THE HILL,AND YESTERDAY.
THE OTHER TWO SONGS ON THIS ALBUM LUCY IN THE SKYS WITH DIAMONDS
AND THE BALLAD OF JOHN AND YOKO ARE WITH A FAST TEMPO AND SOUND
GREAT.A NOTE ABOUT YESTERDAY.THIS ISN'T THE SAME VERSION HEARD
ON THE THEMES FOR THE INCROWD ALBUM.THIS IS THE SECOND VERSION
ON THIS ALBUM BUT IT SOUNDS AS GOOD AS THE FIRST VERSION.
ALSO SOMETHING ON THIS ALBUM IS THE SECOND VERSION ON THIS
ALBUM.IT'S NOT THE SAME VERSION THAT'S HEARD ON HIS LEAVING
ON A JET PLANE ALBUM.THAT ONE IS WITH THE CHROUS AND THIS VERSION
IS ALL ORCHESTRA AND STRINGS.ALSO FAITH ENDS THE SONG BECAUSE
SO BEAUTIFULLY AND HIS VERSION OF HERE,THERE,AND EVERWHERE
USE TO BE PLAYED ON BEAUTIFUL MUSIC STATIONS.
JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR FROM 1971 IS WORTH HAVING FOR I DON'T
KNOW HOW TO LOVE HIM.THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL VERSIONS
OF THIS SONG I'VE EVER HEARD BUT IS THE ONLY BEAUTIFUL SONG ON
THIS ALBUM.THE REST OF THESE SONGS ARE BRASSY IN NATURE.SUPERSTAR HOWEVER ENDS WITH WHAT SOUNDS LIKE CHIMES.I
LOVE THEM.BOTH OF THESE ALBUMS ARE ORCHESTRA ONLY.THE ORIGINAL
LINER NOTES ARE NOT AVAILABLE HOWEVER COLLECTIBLES HAVE INCLUDED
THERE OWN ON BOTH OF THESE ALBUMS.THE FRONT COVER HAS A NICE
PICTURE OF FAITH BESIDE THE MAIN ALBUM COVERS.THE INSET HAS A
CLOSE UP OF THE BEATLES ALBUM UNDER THE SEE THROUGH CD HOLDER.
IF YOUR A TRUE FAITH COLLECTOR YOU MUST ADD THIS TO YOUR COLLECTION AS IT WON'T BE COMPLETE WITHOUT IT.I RECOMMEND
GREAT FOLK THEMES/AMERICAN SERANADE TO GO WITH THIS ONE.
I ALSO RECOMMEND LOVE SONGS BY THE 101 STRINGS TO GO WITH
THESE AS THE SONGS ON THIS ALBUM ARE CONSISTANT WITH WHAT
BEAUTIFUL MUSIC IS.ALSO IF YOU LIKE
PERCY FAITH PICK UP HIS NEW CD'S COMING FROM COLLECTIBLES FEB 18
2003 JOY/DAY BY DAY AND CHINATOWN/SUMMER PLACE'76

I had this album many years ago, and had to sell all my LP's when my husband died, so was very happy to find it again on CD. Very beautiful instrumental arrangements of some favorite Beatles songs. They were musical geniuses!
