Love Letters
Fantasy Records 3327 - 8070
1960
On this LP, Pandit is accompanied by Arthur Bergman on the guitar.
I think the model on the album cover is Pandit's wife, Beryl. She would have been 40 years old when this album was released.
This album is slightly more traditional sounding than the other Pandit recordings I currently own. But the addition of the guitar was a wise choice and helps to create lush light jazz mood throughout the LP.
Love Letters
Fantasy Records 3327 F-8070
Here's a mystery. I found another copy of Love Letters, as pictured above with a slight cover variation (the fantasy logo is different). The record is black vinyl and the label is obviously a later design.
I love how Pandit apparently dated everything he signed, so we know this record was released before May, 1981. But this record doesn't appear on the Pandit Discography as found on the website dedicated to his memory. This has to be a later pressing even though the cover has all the appearances of being designed and earlier than the late 70s or early 80s (the label design screams 80s if you ask me).
The notation appears to be: Greetings to Elizabeth & Harold G---, May 19, 1981
very interesting! I've not seen this one anywhere yet! NICE score!
ReplyDeleteGreat site of vintage vinyl! I came across it while searching for the year of the Korla Pandit album. Photographer John Purlia used it, along with Jane Morgan's Love Makes The World Go 'Round, in one of his pieces. You can check out his collection of ~500 vintage vinyl covers on Flickr. It's pretty sweet. http://www.flickr.com/photos/johnpurlia/
