POP MAGIC
VA - Magic Moments [2020] (3 x CDs)
75 cool, sophisticated and timeless tracks across 3CDs, all packaged in an attractive card fold out pocket pack. Includes Andy Williams, Elvis Presley, Ella Fitzgerald, Roy Orbison, Dusty Springfield, Frank Sinatra, Doris Day and many more.
As a compilation of 50’s and 60’s bar and lounge music this is really rather special. You get the classics but also some rarer tunes. I have to say I like them all. Now pass me my smoking jacket and mix me a martini!!! (Amazon).

Thanks! I'd love to see more like this, perhaps in a Lucky Dip one day.
ReplyDeleteHi DeveloperDan.
DeleteI am sure there is room for A Lucky Dip or two ...
Cheers.
Cool. I like this. Great little collection! Colorful eye-catching cover!
DeleteWas there a subsequent Lucky Dip to look for as referred to above?
Hi mrRadio.
DeleteEasy listening comps are great.
Yes, there were two. Clearly there should have been more, but I guess I got sidetracked.
These were posted:
BB LUCKY DIP #192 Easy Listening - March 9, 2023
BB LUCKY DIP #216 Easy Listening 2 - June 1, 2023
Cheers.
That was fast!
DeleteThanks, I wasn't sure what the category to search for would be.
"classics but also some rarer tunes" BB that is exactly what I love about your blog. Thanks again.
