VA - AOR Global Sounds Vol. 01-Vol. 05 [2015-2021] 1975-1986 (5 x CD's)

 

AOR GLOBAL SOUNDS

VA - AOR Global Sounds Vol. 01-Vol. 05 [2015-2021] 1975-1986 (5 x CD's)

"Following the recent success of French Disco Boogie Sounds, DJ and producer Charles Maurice is back on Favorite Recordings, this time engaging a musical World tour, in the search of hidden productions with a touch of AOR style.

The result is AOR Global Sounds, a new compilation series made of forgotten and rare tracks produced between 1975 and 1986 in all parts of the globe.

At the end of the 70's, many artists over the world were deeply influenced by AOR’s famous stars such as Steely Dan and his classic Aja LP, looking to reach the same attention to sound production and details, and this specific Westcoast style mixing together Pop-Rock standards, with Soul (sometime Disco) and Jazz influences. The music  is clearly infused with this special AOR touch, in a Soulful and Disco way.  This perfect soundtrack for the summer has been fully remastered from original versions, and is presented by Favorite Recordings in a deluxe vinyl version, housed in a tip-on jacket. A must have for rare-groove music collectors and many more… "

The same attention to sound quality is given to each of these 5 CD's.
