1968

You can read all about Brad Miller and Mystic Moods on Space Age Pop.

Miller combined sound effects with his brand of mood. Rain effects starts off this LP and Miller let's it storms all the way through the LP. According to the notes Miller recorded these effects just for this project. At first I thought all the rain would be annoying but the layering of music and sound effects creates a pleasant and interesting mood. The sound effects help blend one track into another. The blending of tracks is an appealing technique that creates more of a single soundscape.

Delibes Lakme (Bell Song)

The Voice Of Miliza Korjus
RCA CAMDEN CAL 297
1959

This LP has a bit of a "hollywood soundtrack" flare to it. Korjus did work in a number of films. She was nominated for the Academy Award For Best Supporting Actress for her first film appearance in The Great Waltz (1938).

Of note, in 1944 or thereabouts she settled in Los Angeles and founded Venus Records so that she could release her earlier recordings.

Enjoy!
