Sparkling Music For Fireside Listening - The Mayfair Strings

Wyoming
Sparkling Music For Fireside Listening
The Mayfair Strings
King 2009
1961

Total budget. Recycled mood licensed from EMI, London. This King release is so cheap that it makes Allegro Royale pressings look like high-end collectibles. The cover is a stunning piece of graphic design that features hastily stenciled violins (yes… the production department took a grease pencil and roughed out the violin shapes) that they then superimposed over a stock photo of hell.

Terrific!
