Just going through my boot fair haul now this is the best of the bunch...
* Arthur Fieldler and The boston Pops plays the beatles (over the top orchestral arrangements of beatles hits, run of the mill but good
* Peter Nero - Piano Magic (all pretty good stand out track is I am the same guy (soulful Strut)) good instro piano slightly beat/funky.
* Elvis Sings from his movies - plus TWO recent hits (Camden, guitar man and Big Boss man are quite good but the kings comedy version of "Old Macdonald" is ace big band groovy with lines like "with a moo moo here and a moo moo there and when those cows got out of line, Hamburber Medium Rare")
Roger Coulam - Hammond Stero sounds...to sploil you (best dodgy Hammond Hits LP I have ever bought with most of the LP being funky and about 1/3 being plane wicked, stand out tunes are "Ode to Billie Joe", Dizzy, Time is Tight, Show Me and the awsome "Lets put out the lights")
Duke Grant and his Trio - Hammond Organ Dance Party (Guantanamera starts of dodgy and then grows into hammond fuelled groove monster the rest of the LP is so so)
Charlie Rich - Boss Man (Big Boss Man and I do My Swinging at home are the country with a bluesy groove numbers on this LP)
The Bruce Baxtor Orchestra - 50 Popular TV THemes (Instrumental versions of 50 TV THemes about 1/3 of them are funky and while the orchestrations don't set me on fire this is a solid value LP)
Helmut Zacharias - Tokyo Melody (most of this LP is so so, a funny funky version of I were a rich man, but fast foreward to the last track "Mexico Melody" for a fast paste groove monster)
Chaquito - Latin Colours (Pretty good version of Light my Fire, But Upa Negrina is a latin big band funk groover to die for)
Pepe Chaquita Brass - Tijuana Fiesta (Average version of Light my fire, "HOld me Tight" is a groover)
BBC Radiophonic Workshop - Out of this world (Sound effects LP hoping to pass this on to someone to sample it)
Harry Stoneham - Hammond my Way (So so hammond pops LP with the self penned "MOve IN" Being by far the best track)
Help yourself to Hammond - (so so versions of pop hit Venus being the best track)
These LPs are doubles that I wil be passing onto freinds
Jason Ryder Sound - Hair (More of a straight hammond Funk instrumtal LP then anything todo with the hair musical)
John Keating - Space Experience (You all know this LP!)
Helmut Zacharias - Light my fire (ok medium beaty version of pop hits House that Jack Built being the highlight)
Les Reed - International Pop Proms (Various orchestral pop hits, Satisfaction Is terrefic and good vibrations is pretty good as well)
WAR - Youngblood (flying machine is the groovy jazzy flute number)
MPS Various - The sound of great music (Inc Mr Clean Rhythm Combination & Brass which is german big band orchestral funk at its best)
Chico Lopez - South of the Border (Trouble Spot is one of my favourite Runes of all time an absolutely storming monster that defines the catrogy Speed Lounge for me)
Walker Brothers - Make it easy on yourself (All is ok but there version of Land of 100 Dances is the best I have heard so far one for the dancefloor)
