I came across this CD on Amazon and was absolutely thrilled to see
the name, Frank Chacksfield again after sooo many years. When I was
in high school and college and young married, I listened to this
glorious music for hours on end. Every selection is perfect. Remember,
"Limelight" (from movie Charlie Chaplin made in '50's), Ebb Tide,
How deep is the ocean. The best thing about this recording is whoever
remastered it did a beautiful job-it sounds exactly like it did
way, way back. It is wonderful to know we still have beautiful music in our lives.

There are 2 new CDs of Polygram, one this of Mr. Chacksfield, a wonderful orchestra with 2 LPs. 1 is inedit "Limelight", for the first time in CD. The other CD of Polygram is of Ronnie Aldrich, too 2 on 1. Both CDs are excellents! The sound is 5 stars for the 2 CDs.
The 4 LPs represents the golden years of the big orchestras and Decca/London.
If you love the GOOD sound, the GOOD orchestras and GOOD arragments, buy this two new CDs of Polygram.
(Note for Polygram personal: Vocalion a few weeks ago debuted with 2 CDs with the same material in each half of this compilations! Please, can somebody do a little look to the records in this world before reediting again the same LPS?).
There are MANY records (LPs) and hidden treasures waiting to see the format in CD. And Many collectors and fans of Phase 4 Stereo waiting NEW music.....

Y PARA LOS DE HABLA EN ESPAÑOL:
Decca está sacando por fin dobles álbumes en 1 CD. Aunque Vocalion presentó hace unas semanas "Beyond the sea" en otro doblete, tenemos acá "Limelight", un excelente LP, temas magníficos y espectacular sonido (degusten el Concierto de Varsovia y "Tonight"). Vale la pena comprar éste CD, al igual que el doble recién salido de Ronnie Aldrich (Soft & Wicked and Where the Love is).
Esperemos que al fin publiquen toda esta excelente música de los 60's y 70's, con arte original, toda de la era dorada de London/Decca y su sello Phase 4 Stereo.
Aprovechen, cómprenlo, está barato y obtienen una orquesta 1A, sonido mejor que cualquiera de las nuevas grabaciones DDD y música para colocarse los audífonos y disfrutar (Ojo, no es para colocar en el equipo y oírlo de fondo, no señor!).Esta música no se vuelve a escuchar.
