Rock & roll seemed the farthest thing from anyone's mind during the early '50s. Elaborate, highly arranged songs such as Tony Bennett's "Rags to Riches," Rosemary Clooney's "Come On-A My House" and Kay Starr's "Wheel of Fortune" were the norm, plus the overwrought and frenzied vocals of Eddie Fisher and Johnny Ray & the Four Lads. There were also ...

Les Paul & Mary Ford
Since Columbia didn't have access to any of Paul and Ford's monster hits, they made do on their budget Harmony line with this collection of stray album tracks, near-hits, and failed singles. Clearly some of the old zip is missing from much of Paul's Columbia music, a lot of which is taken at glacial tempos. But his guitar obligatos to Ford's ...

The original ten-inch Capitol album rounds up all four of the wild-and-crazy groundbreaking singles that launched Les Paul's experiments in overdubbing and highspeed recording. That they could be done at all in those days was astounding, for Paul was still recording directly onto discs in 1947, with just himself and a drummer now and then. ...

Funny that history should repeat itself so blatantly, for as was the casse with Decca, Les Paul's first album for Columbia was -- surprise -- a Hawaiian album. Whose idea it was is not clear, but the sequel is only intermittently satisfying, despite the advances in recording technique (this was Les Paul's first released stereo recording). Five of ...

It was a confusing time to be in the record business in the mid-'50s, as this 16-selection album could be found as a single 12-inch LP, two 10-inch LPs, two 45 RPM double albums, four 45 RPM single albums, and it has been spotted on 78s too. Not only were the formats diversified, so was the repertoire -- to a degree extreme even for the free ...
