Kismet - Percy Faith

Kismet
Percy Faith And His Orchestra
Columbia CL 550
1954

I purchased this Percy Faith album for the graphically bold and beautiful cover. This album is apparently Faith's third album (of many) according to his wiki page discography.

Columbia marketed the record in billboard as an album that dealers where using to demonstrate sound systems. Apparently due to the good dynamic range of the recording.

Available on CD or purchase by the download with different and pretty awful looking art.

    AWESOME, awesome cover! Almost every version of Kismet I've stumbled upon has a fantastic cover! Nice one!
