5.0 out of 5 stars Cool Nostalgia, June 1, 2000

Those of us who watched television in the 1960's will fondly remember the commercial jingles. If you enjoy both jazz and lounge music, and appreciate regular doses of nostalgia, then this CD issue of an album released in 1967 is a must have. Arrangements are elaborate in keeping with the musical principles of lounge music and include full orchestration with chorus. Benny Golson's sax adds an appropriate dash of spice. This is feel good music at it's best-bring out the martinis and reminisce.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good but not the originals, July 10, 2006

It is good considering that somethings are unavailable otherwise.
I bought this CD for one track, "The Dis-Advantages of You", origially performed by "the Brass Ring".
This was the very relaxing, semi erotic sounding music used as sound track in a television commercial for a certain one hundred 100 milimeter cigarette.
Good CD true, but the old adage about the original being the best is certainly true here.
