Music From Another World

Nightingale
Music From Another World
The Jay Gordon Concert Orchestra
Tops L1552
1957

From the back cover: Jet-propulsion, man-made satellites, rockets to the moon – all bring us within the reach of another world! With new vistas, new horizons to explore come new musical experiences such as this thrilling newly-released album proudly presented to you by TOPS Records "Music From Another World" in dynamic Hi-Fidelity.

The album features a great looking cover, exciting track titles and titillating jacket copy. However, the music is very straight forward and not all that "from another world". For the love of space age... Tops could have thrown in some bongos or actual chanting on Chant Of The Amazon or at least a theremin on the title track. Oh well... nice cover.
