The passions & pageantry of gods & goddesses of mythology by Frank DeVol & his orchestra is an orchestral fantasy featuring such tracks as Neptune, Mercury, Helen of Troy, Morpheus, Bacchus...16 tracks in all. Style-wise, if you have a stack-able turntable (which is on my Christmas list), this would play well with Dominic Frontiere's Pagan festival. Here's a gem. Werner Muller's hip & groovy orchestra has recorded several great albums...Hawaiian swing many of us are familiar with and it's a killer. Also of interest, his Cherry blossom time in Japan lp and THIS treasure East of India. Something inbetween "The Brady Bunch has an Oriental holiday" and "The Jet Set does Bali" it's a festival of traditional tunes jazzed up & original tone poems. Tracks include: On The Kyushu Island, Ritual dance, Sampans on the river, Bazaar melody, etc. A lovely exotic album, Armenian descent American Anita Darian, it is claimed on the liner notes, has a greater vocal range than Yma Sumac. Of note also is that the orchestra is directed by Frank Hunter, of White goddess fame. Selections include: Poor butterfly, Misirlou, Come on-a my house (in Armenian), On a little street in Singapore, etc. Paradise is a state of mind. [ Edited by: Kaiwaza 2009-11-18 12:51 ]
