Jazz, blues and nostalgia, by Sjaak Roodenburg.
Musical time traveling.
A humerous duet by singer-songwriter Johnny Mercer, with Bobby Darin (‘Paddlin’ Madelin’ home).
Music from ‘The Odd Couple’ by Billy May,
Percussionist Buddy Rich in a vocal role (‘It’s only a paper moon’),
Hank Mobley, ‘the middleweight champion of the tenor saxophone‘, with Wynton Kelly, Paul Chambers and Art Blakey pretty ‘laid back’ in ‘Remember’.
From the Netherlands: Ger van Leeuwen with Ado Broodboom (among others) in ‘Pop-corn’, and Corry Brokken with Ernst van Altena’s Dutch translation of Joan Baez’ hit ‘There but for fortune’.
Special attention for the circus with: Harry James, Doris Day, André Popp, Toon Hermans, Harry Bannink and Eartha Kitt.
Also: The Seekers, the obscure Jeri Southern (‘Dancing on the ceiling’), Sarah Vaughan, bluegrass-duo Flatt & Scruggs, r&b-vocal group The Dominoes (‘Chicken Blues’) and ‘British Sinatra’ Matt Monro.
