David Rose - Don Lee - KHJ

(4 Sterne)

The composer's full name was David Rose. Some years later he had a hit with "The Stripper". The originating radio station was KHJ. KHJ was a Don Lee owned and operated radio station in Los Angeles. At the time of these performances there were perhaps two or three million people in California. Generally speaking, the pace was substantially slower and more in touch with nature, as reflected in these recordings.

Beautifully orchestrated

(5 Sterne)

I cannot add much to what the first reviewer said. Fine snd mellow. Just what you need for drives and late at night. I'd never heard of this series. Thanks.

Wow awesome

(5 Sterne)

Nice, mellow tunes from back in the day. Thank you so much for these, they're really good easy-listening :)
