A Treasury of Immortal Performances
(Victor, 5 vols. 45 r.p.m.). Victor's second installment of records recalling the time when bands were bands and maestros like Benny Goodman, Duke Ellington and Bunny Berigan were leading them.
Mr. Imperium (Ezio Pinza & Fran Warren; Victor, 2 sides LP). Miss Warren and songs (some of them pretty featherweight) are badly outclassed by Operatic Heavyweight Pinza.
Les Paul's New Sound (Les Paul with Mary Ford; Capitol, 6 sides 45 r.p.m.). Paul's new sound is one mean guitar parlayed by electronics into a whole studioful of mean guitars. Also thanks...
