I'll Remember Jamaica With Archie Lewis

Producer: Ken Khouri

Engineer: Louis Davidson

Federal 213

1968

From the back cover: In the entertainment field all across the island, from East to West, in every Hotel along the North Shore, can be heard, 7 days a week, the melodious voice of Archie Lewis. We say melodious because to us and to the visitors to the island, long after the night has been spent, linger in the minds and hearts of all, the beauty of the ballads portrayed.

In this album Archie has selected many of his favorite Songs, such as Island In The Sun, Yellow Bird, Sing Me a Song Of The Island, Spanish Eyes, which he hopes will delight you!

Over the years Archie has made for himself and for all who have heard him, a numerous amount of friends – both local and foreign, who each time they come back to Jamaica look forward to seeing and hearing him and his voice is one of those that are never to be forgotten.

This Trouper who has been singing for years in such places as Germany, Holland, Belgium and France, sings in 5 different languages, but you'll love him even more when he thrills you with our own Jamaican Folk Songs. To remember him is easy – just play the record on your turntable and the memories of Jamaica and the hours with Archie will linger on and on.

The Many Sides Of Abbe Lane

 

The Facts Of Life

The Many Sides Of Abbe Lane

Produced by Hal Mooney

Mercury Records SR 60930

1964

From the back cover: Certain truths are self-evident. Abbe Lane is sexy. Abbe Lane sings... are two examples. Other truths are not so self-evident. For instance, at the age of six Abbe Lane was a radio child star (The Children's Hour... she was six, remember?). Abbe played Broadway (George Abbott's production of Barefoot Boy With Cheek... she lied about her age). Later she kicked up her heels with Phil Silvers in High Button Shoes, then continued her early great white ways with Bonanza Bound and As The Girls Go. And one day, as the girls were going a famous bandleader was watching. And whom did he spy? Abbe. And what did he do? He signed her up on the spot, naturally. 

As featured vocalist with Xavier Cugat's internationally famous Latin rhythm band, Abbe said goodbye to Broadway, hello France... and England, and Italy, and South America. In fact, wherever the four winds blow, Abbe and the band blew, and bowed to enthusiastic applause. For three years, La Lane sang, sighed and slithered in front of Xavier's band. During that time, being only human, Cuggie did what any red-blooded Latin would do under similar circumstances: he fell in love and he and Abbe were married.

Actually, Abbe's castanets clicked so well with Cugat audiences everywhere that she became the band's undeniable main attraction. But the splendid showcase of the top touring Latin orchestra in the world can be as much of a limitation as an advantage. Especially for someone as able as our Abbe. For though Abbe Latinizes so well that she is often take for a South American (actually she was born in Manhattan, of German-Spanish descent), Abbe Lane is a lady with many sides to her talent.

Recorded here for your pleasure are The Many Sides Of Abbe Lane, spirited swinger, curvaceous caresser, expert interpreter of lyrics that show the many sides of love. To show just how versatile she is, Abbe applies her ingenuity to a variety of the best modern material, while Mercury applies the latest engineering and technical know-how to the situation. The results are clearly stated, not on the package, but in the package. And a lovely package it is. – Bill Petan
