This is for others into lounge music beyond the trinity of Baxter, Denny and Lyman.
I just picked up twenty nearly mint- condition albums by the Jackie Gleason Orchestra at a local thrift shop. They probably came from a donated collection, since they were all neatly grouped together. Paid $1 each. For those not familar, Gleason delivered very lush sounds; more emotive, I think, than other artists of that era. And, his album cover art featuring wistful and/or alluring dames dressed to the nines, is tremendous. Anyone know if there is a tribute site to the Great One's music?
Thanks.
