Product Description
Contents Format: CD Specifications: Jewel Case Specifications 2: Remastered Original Recordings Featuring titles being released on CD for the first time in Japan, this release brings together 12 vocal works from Audiofile, a label whose original LPs are all known to be highly sought after! Audiofile is a record label founded in 1947 by recording engineer Ewing Nunn. Primarily focused on Dixieland jazz, the label also released classical works featuring pipe organ recordings in its early days. After being sold to Happy Jazz Records, another label specializing in Dixieland jazz, in 1969, it was sold to George Buck's Jazzology, which revived progressive records, in the 1970s. Since moving to Jazzology, it has released archival works of popular vocals from the good old days and new recordings of jazz vocals, and has released albums by many jazz singers such as Chris Connor, Carol Sloane, and Mark Murphy, making it a label long loved by vocal fans. This is the final studio recording by Lee Wiley, the urban singer known for "Manhattan Fog," made in 1971. Backed by Dick Hayman's band, this album is full of Wiley's charm as he sings standards with a smooth, mature voice, as if telling the story. [TRACKLIST] 01. Moon River 02. When I Fell in Love 03.
