Nelson Riddle - Communication (1973)

Thanks for all the messages, I've decided to carry on for as long as I can, but remember to grab these quick before they get gone!

This really is one of my favourite albums and along with Changing Colours is something I listen to again and again.  Time and Space is particularly fantastic.

So Long, Farewell, Auf Wiedersehen, Goodbye

This morning I received the following email from Mediafire:

Thanks for past help, Jodi & co... Thanks in advance for removing the five files listed below, including albums by Kookie Freeman and the Graham Dalley Dozen, and posted at http://loungetastic.blogspot.com/

Now that these files have been taken down you'll obviously have to go into your nearest record store and stock up on all the Kookie Freeman, Manuel and Graham Dalley CDs that are littering the shelves!

It's a shame that because of our friendly little Web Sheriffs like Jodi "and co", this music will never be heard by more than a handful of us lucky enough to own the records.

I think that's probably it for me now, it all seems a little pointless...

Kookie Freeman - More Love In Velvet (1969)

Velvety sounds from Kookie Freeman

Manuel And His Music Of The Mountains - Cha Cha With Manuel (1976)

A mid-70s greatest hits of sorts.  Great version of Fernando!

Graham Dalley Dozen - Sounds International (1969)

Great album this, so please try and grab it before it disappears!

Sounds Danceable (1972)

Quick chop!

Pete Wilson And His Quintet - Dance Party (1965)

If you're having a cocktail party tonight, here's something to make the party "swing".  Or not.

Enoch Light - Discotheque Volume 2 (1965)

I was talking to someone from the States recently about Enoch Light.  Being English (not my fault!) and living here in the England, Enoch Light albums are pretty few and far between, so it's always nice to stumble across one.  Also, his music always sounds so vibrant, exciting and exotic to me. 

Anyway, this is a nice one and features tracks that are a little different from the norm.  Some of the tracks seem to end suddenly, don't worry, it's just that on the album they tend to run into each other.  Play them in sequence and you'll see what I mean.  Have a nice Wednesday.

Mike Sammes Singers - Sounds Sensational (1965)

Links collapsed due to DMCA complaint.

Here's the other vocal album I mentioned yesterday.  S2S, so can't be bad!

Don Black Orchestra - Movie Songbook (1970)

I'm not usually a fan of vocal EL albums, but I like this one - and the one I'll be posting tomorrow.   Contains one of my favourite songs, On Days Like These.

Ray Miranda Orchestra - Latin Ole (1969)

Links collapsed due to DMCA complaint.

Sunday afternoon latin a go-go.

Stereo 99 (1968)

Links collapsed due to DMCA complaint.

I guess this is what they thought we'd be listening to at the end of the 20th century.  Some of us were!

Duncan Lamont - Summer Sambas (1973)

Something else for someone to complain about.

The Hollywood Soundmakers - Great Music From The Films (1968)

What a great LP this is.  It sounds like a few blokes down the pub decided to pop into a studio with their bass, guitar and drums to record an album of Morricone greats.  Fantastic.

Steve Race (Studio 2 Stereo, 1966)

Get it while you can!

Brian Fahey - Stereo Explosion (1971)

As it's so nice and sunny today, why not play the wonderful Trumpets In The Sun.  Very, very loudly.

Pepe Jaramillo - Moonlight In Mexico (1967)

Due to another DMCA complaint, the links to this post have been collapsed.

The question is will I ever get tired of posting Studio 2 Stereo albums?  Nah...

Franck Pourcel - Dancing In The Sun (1970)

Those of us in the UK have no doubt been enjoying the beautiful Good Friday weather.  I've been saving this album for just such a day.  IMHO, apart from the wonderful Days Of Pearly Spencer, the title track to this album, Dancing In The Sun, is one of Franck's finest tracks on all of his many albums.

Chaquito - It's Magic (1971)

Well, let's give this one a go. My favourite (probably) of all the Chaquito albums.  It certainly contains my favourite track by them, the title track, It's Magic.

Thanks for all the emails of support, BTW!  It's much appreciated and it's always nice to hear that people like wat we're doing here at I-FE.

More DMCA Complaints Today

Well, three more posts have been removed today due to a DMCA complaint. 

To be honest, I'm not sure this is going to be worth it anymore if they're just going to take everything down.

Nelson Riddle - Changing Colors (1973)

This is a fantastic album.  Two of my favourite ever tracks are on here, My Life and Lamento.  From now on I'll be putting a couple of tracks from each upload on YouTube, so at least you can sample before you download or at hear on what you've missed out on!  As someone else pointed out Divshare just slows things down.

Grab this while you can as who knows how long this one will last.

Blogger DMCA Takedown Notification

I received an email from Blogger yesterday regarding three posts on In-Flight:  Garry Blake, Mellow Fruitfulness and Michel Legrand.  I have now removed the links but kept the posts there.

Interestingly, by law, they cannot delete my posts - just put them into draft mode, which they did.  They also have to list the complainants, but with any personal info redacted.  This is the link they sent me, interesting stuff:

http://www.chillingeffects.org/notice.cgi

Not been a good week in blogger land, to be honest.  Before this a lot of links I had on Megaupload and Rapidshare have been deleted.  If you try and download a file and the link is dead then please contact me.  I'm not going to replace the files - it takes too much time.

Is this the beginning of the end?

Raymond Lefevre and His Orchestra (1967)

 Lovely sounding album includes contemporary hits such as A White Shade of Pale and Puppet on a String.  Highlight for me though is Soul Coaxing, AKA Ame Caline, of which I never tire of hearing.

This one is for the Cotswold Kid and for no other reason than for being a bloody nice bloke.

I've posted a few albums by Garry in the past and they've all been received well.  I don't know a thing about him though, so if anyone has any information then I'd be grateful.  This was posted previously with a different sleeve, but this is a nicer sounding copy, with a slightly different track list.

Mellow Fruitfulness - A Whiter Shade Of Pale (1967)

If you fancy a bit of mellow fruitfulness in glorious mono then you're in luck here.
