The Carpetbaggers

The Carpetbaggers Theme 2
Theme Music From The Carpetbaggers
The Wyncote Orchestra And Chorus
Wyncote W-9015 (stereo)
1964

What could I expect from an album released on a budget label like Wyncote? This cover is the worst and the group of musicians is named The Wyncote Orchestra? Exciting!

This is a pretty cool album! There are a number of light pop tunes on the album in addition to the dramatic example posted above. All but one of those songs (there is a dull track that finishes up the LP on the B side) are well done. Each song is unusually extended so there are only six tracks featured on the LP.

  2. I don't know about you, but I prefer the instrumentals on this album. The singing irritates me!
