Zither Goes Hollywood - Ruth Welcome

Love Letters
Zither Goes Hollywood
Ruth Welcome
Capitol Records ST-1986
1963

Ruth Welcome recorded some of my favorite zither albums. Actually... Welcome recorded the only zither albums I've ever heard. Check out Welcome's Zither Magic.

On this release Welcome's zither is backed by an organ. The zither and organ combo create quirky sounding covers of various movie themes. Some of the tracks on this album approach oddball status.
