I must say that compared to my trash can find the other day, this was a total let down. More classical and stringy than lounge, but that's not Enoch's fault. People back then just got a charge out of hearing something produced in a technically perfected stereo environment. Gotta love that. Can you imagine anything like that in today's society. Anything without an explosion or violence or a bleeped out expletive here and there wouldn't even rate now...nevermind stereo. The other LP I picked up today was called 'Pure Truck Stop' by Jerry Smith and his Pianos. Great cover photo of smiling waitresses standing in front of a Union 76 truck stop circa 1969. The music is kinda honky tonkish, and sometimes quirky. All instrumental. One tune does have some whistling on it instead of vocals. And you know what.....if it sounds like anything, it sounds like a truck stop!!
