Hard to Find Jukebox Classics
Stereo Explosion Vol. 6:
Fabulous Fifties
Hit Parade CD #12333 (Import) $15.98
Set the Way-Back machine for the 1950s and you’ll hear your favorite songs in dull old mono. But you’ll quickly want to jump back to 2022 to hear this sixth collection in the Stereo Explosion series, where 29 of your favorite ’50s songs have been transformed into the latest, most advanced 21st century stereo in existence.
28 Stereo Debuts! Be prepared to hear the best hits of Bobby Rydell, Annette, Elvis, Jack Scott, Bobby Darin, Dean Martin, The Four Lads, James Brown and so many other teen, rockabilly, R&B, novelty and pre-rock era standards as you’ve never heard them before, in audiophile stereo for the first time. Includes a 12-page booklet with photos and liner notes by Fred Bronson.
For serious collectors, there is finally a greatly improved stereo mix of “Beyond The Sea,” along with terrific new stereo of early rockers by Bobby Rydell and Jack Scott. The full orchestral sound of “O Dio Mio” in stereo is especially amazing, as are The Four Lads’ vocals now in separate channels. Elvis’ early recording of “Mystery Train” from his Sun Studio days has never sounded more intimate, and his under-appreciated “Treat Me Nice” can now take its rightful place with his later stereo classics.
Check out the sound samples below (on your best system). You won’t find these EXCLUSIVE stereo gems online!
