Jazz, blues and nostalgia, by Sjaak Roodenburg.
A sparkling beginning with Nancy Wilson, and at least as overwhelming Bobby Darin in the same song from ‘My Fair Lady’.
Because of his struggles with the Narcotics Act, singer David Allyn fell into oblivion, Sinatra helped him, again things went wrong, but when he made do with a job in a hardware shop, his career experienced a revival after all. And whoever hears him, knows how right it was.
Furthermore, the Flemish singer, guitarist and songwriter Wigbert with Fay Lovsky, one of the pioneers of vocalising, Joe Carroll, with Dizzy Gillespie, Ella Fitzgerald, mild swing by the patriotic Millers of Ab de Molenaar with Eddy Doorenbos and Sanny Day.
Also Count Basie on organ, beautifully accompanied by tenor Paul Quinichette and trumpet player Joe Newman in ‘She’s funny that way’,
the champagne bubble orchestra of Freddy Martin, and as a mini-special, three times the same song by Roy Orbison, Frank Sinatra and Ray Charles.
