Percy Faith - More Themes For Young Lovers / Latin Themes For Young Lovers (2002)

Over an hour of stand outs ~ "ANYONE WHO HAD A HEART", "WIVES AND LOVERS" and "BLUE ON BLUE", three great standards by the composing team of Hal David and Burt Bacharach ~ "UM, UM, UM, UM, UM, UM", the great Curtis Mayfield tune with highlights of plunking strings and percussion. Might make mention the track "JUDY", composed by Percy Faith, later came out as "Christmas Is", became a wonderful Holiday Classic we hear during the Christmas Season.
Let's take a trip down to South America with "THE LONELY BULL", a Sol Lake composition originally was made a hit by Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass, but listen to this brilliant arrangement by Percy and picture the countryside as you listen to the hovering strings ~ "ONE NOTE SAMBA", "HOW INSENSITIVE (INSENSATAEZ)", "NO MORE BLUES (CHEGA DE SAUDADE)", "QUIET NIGHTS OF QUIET STARS (CORCOVADO)", "SOMEONE TO LIGHT UP MY LIFE (SE TODOS FOSSEM IGUAIS A VOCE)" and "THE GIRL FROM IPANEMA (GAROTA DE IPANEMA)"all composed by Antonio Carlos Jobim reaching new heights and all because of the performances of Percy and the guys in his fabulous orchestra ~ gotta love it!
