"The Bert Kaempfert Decca Collection" is a comprehensive 24 CD box set that encapsulates the musical genius of renowned German orchestra leader, music producer, and songwriter Bert Kaempfert. Released by Polydor, this collection offers an extensive journey through Kaempfert's illustrious career.
Bert Kaempfert was one of the most influential figures in easy listening music during the mid-20th century. Known for his distinctive sound characterized by big band arrangements, string sections, and a simple yet catchy rhythm section featuring a double bass and snare drum with brushes; he has left an indelible mark on popular music. His compositions like "Strangers in The Night," made famous by Frank Sinatra, or "Spanish Eyes," sung by Al Martino are just two examples of his timeless classics included in this collection.
This box set provides fans with over twenty albums worth of material from his tenure at Decca Records. It includes chart-topping hits as well as lesser-known gems that showcase not only his talent as a composer but also as an arranger and conductor. From swing to jazz to pop ballads - every genre touched by Kaempfert's magic wand is represented here.
Polydor, the manufacturer behind this release is one of the most respected names in the recording industry. Founded in Germany in 1924 as part of Deutsche Grammophon-Polydor's history spans almost a century filled with countless successful artists across various genres including ABBA, The Who and Lady Gaga among others.
In conclusion: "The Bert Kaempfert Decca Collection" is more than just another compilation album - it’s an immersive experience into the world of one of pop music’s unsung heroes whose influence can still be heard today.
Es handelt sich um eine solide Box mit grundsätzlichen Erläuterungen zu Bert Kaempfert und seiner Musik, allerdings nur auf Englisch, sowie kurzen zeitlichen, technischen und personellen Angaben zu allen auf den 24 CDs versammelten Liedern.
Die Box enthält alle US-Alben von Bert Kaempfert. Die paper sleeves geben die originalen Vorder- und Rückseiten der LP-Hüllen wieder.
Wer den Easy-Listening-Sound Bert Kaempferts mag, dessen Miterfinder er ist, wird große Freude an der Box haben.
