Shelly Manne & His Friends Modern Jazz Performances Of Songs From My Fair Lady LP |
|
 |
Vinyl LP Reissue!
My Fair Lady, recorded by "Shelly Manne & His Friends," was released in 1956 by
Contemporary Records. Shelly Manne and his Friends bassist Leroy Vinnegar and
the once and future classical pianist André Previn had recorded a trio album
before this one (Shelly Manne and Friends) but My Fair Lady was the first and
biggest-selling of the jazz versions of Broadway shows, TV themes, and film
soundtracks later recorded by the trio. It remains a true classic to this day.
Tracks include "I've Grown Accustomed to Your Face," "Wouldn't It Be Loverly,"
and "I Could Have Danced All Night."
"The result is a very appealing set that is easily recommended." -Scott
