Stanley Applewaite Plays In The Still Of The Night

All Of You

Stanley Applewaite Plays
In The Still Of The Night
Music Of Cole Porter
George Norman Orchestra
Design DLP 36

There are several reverb laden vocal tracks on this album, but no mention if Applewaite is the vocalist.

From the back cover: Born in Sheffordshire in 1925, this young pianist made his professional debut at a local music hall at the tender age of nine. He played piano and recited "The Ballad of Lower Ipswich," a twenty minute long piece of saccharine prose written by his great Uncle Harry Applewaite. The short piano section was met with an enthusiastic response. The long dissertation concerning the problems of horsecarman in Lower Ipswich was greeted with nothing but a dull lull...

He is currently conducting the Norton Green Symphonia and has recently signed to score and conduct a new musical movie based on the life of Henry the Eighth.

The Steel Bandits
Play
Decca DL4794

From the back cover: Murray Narell, the father of the first and second lead players, is a social worker who was the director of "Operation Street Corner" at Lower East Side settlement house. He saw in steel drums – the making and playing of them – a way to channel the vast energies of street gangs into constructive ends. In a short time, twenty different bands composed of boys and girls of various ages were making music within the walls of the settlement house. Eventually, some of the bands went out into the community to give benefit performances, to gather applause and give pleasure to their friends and neighbors. Other settlement houses followed suit.

Echoing Voices And Trombone - Don Costa

Skyliner

Echoing Voices And Trombones
Don Costa
Arranged and Produced by Don Costa
Ultra Audio WWS 8501

From the notes: This album was one of the biggest challenges Costa ever faced As Costa states it, "I didn't want to record merely another percussion album. Instead I tried to create a truly exciting musical album, one that would be a pleasure to listen to for its musical ideas, as well as one that would interest hi-fidelity and stereo fans. In this album I used voices as a section of the orchestra and treated them as I would treat the brass or reed section of a large band.

Don Costa - Leader
Bob Rosengarden, Don Lamond Terry Synder and Jerry Bruno - Drums
Moe Wechsler - Piano
George Devens and Joseph Venuto - Percussion
Al Caiola and John Piaazrelli - Guitar
Thomas Mitchell, Bobby Byrne, Bobby Alexander, Chauncey Welsch, Urbie Green and Richard Hixon - Trombone
