Carmen Cavallaro - With That Latin Beat (1958)






















Well, I finally got round to recording something new.  A sparkling album from Carmen Cavallaro.  Apologies for the crackles and pops.  Great album, though.

Not sure of the year though, late 50s, early 60s.

Hello, I know you have been posting for a considerable time, however I would just like to give some personal advice as I notice with this album in particular that you seem to have the beginning of each track too close and what is the affect of this is slight clipping of a piece at the start of the music, this is evident between track 1 and 2.

These albums would really sound better if you were to leave a second or two before the music begins on each track.

Now I know it's possible to be all joined after the event, but the once the damage is done with clipping I believe it then can't be fixed.

I understand that many rippers remove excess silence on LP's track divisions, but I personally would prefer it as is, and maybe this would help with this clipping issue.

Other than that all it really needs is to ensure there is at least 2 secs before the music starts on each track.

This isn't a complaint but merely a help to you and your fellow followers.

Regards

VR

Thanks, VR. I'll try and redo the album when I get time. I must admit I did this one in a little bit of a rush.

I believe the year of release was 1958.

Thanks Max. I've changed the post to reflect this.

The 1958 date is incorrect. This LP was recorded in New York City on 25 May 1959, and released in late July 1959.
