Notes
2024 collection. Nothing said new or modern or futuristic quite like a synthesiser in the 70s and 80s. If you were shooting an advert and you wanted your product or your company to appear forward-thinking and ahead of the game, then you would want something electronic, something out of the ordinary. When TV producers and advertising directors started searching for music that sounded like "Tubular Bells" - and then Tomita, and later Jean Michel Jarre - music libraries such de Wolfe, Bruton, Parry and Chappell had to have the tracks readily available. Compiled by Bob Stanley, "Tomorrow's Fashions" varies from advertising jingles and TV themes to space exploration and gorgeous, beatless ambience. Though it's 40-to-50 years old there's a real freshness to this music. Older jazz players Brian Bennett, John Cameron, Alan Hawkshaw and others seized the chance to operate a synth; younger pups including John Saunders and Monica Beale were simply intrigued by the new technology being wheeled into the studios. There's a tangible sense of adventure. "Tomorrow's Fashions'" brand of electronica anticipated new age and ambient music. It also had both a direct and indirect influence on pop - the early Human League and the future sounds of Warp Records are all over this collection. Electronic library tracks have been sampled by everyone from MF Doom to Kendrick Lamar. One person's primitive and experimental is another person's space-age lullaby. This was music made in the shadows - in Soho's secretive music library studios - that has now become desirable and influential. The chances are chunks of it will be sampled and used on hit records that have yet to be written. If the musicians' aim was to soundtrack tomorrow's fashions, they couldn't have got it more right.

    The CD "NASHVILLE GUITARS - 16 SUPER HITS" is brand new, sealed in its original packaging, as advertised. The disc itself is of good quality. It was packaged in a bubble wrap and suffered no damage during shipping. The seller always responds to messages and is attentive to the buyer. I'm very pleased with my purchase. Thank you very much! I wish the seller all the best!

    For context, the government is shut down and the US Postal Service has been a bit sluggish during Oct. 2025 Despite that, a tracking number was provided quickly and shipping was quite prompt. The LP was brand new (and worth the price, a very high quality pressing!) as described with 0 damage to package, cellophane, etc. The LP was packed in a brand new LP-sized media-mailer with a tear-off for easy opening and no risk of damage from a knife. These guys really know their stuff! A++
