John Barry - Ready When You Are, JB (1971)





















I, like many others, want to pay tribute to John Barry.  Hastily ripped this evening so apologies for any crackles.

RIP John.

Ray Martin and His Orchestra - Dynamica (1962)





















These Stereo Action albums are great, this is an early 70s re-release of Ray Martin's classic early 60s album.

Lovely album this.  Just right for a Friday afternoon while you're winding down the working week and waiting for the weekend to start.

The Border Brass - The Sweet Sounds Of Tijuana (1970)




















OK, so there's the standard fare of Guantanamera and Love Is Blue on here, but the Border Brass also chuck in a few surprises with a cracking version of Galveston being the highlight for me.
