Easy Listening and Lounge by Mark Wirtz 1966: Mark Wirtz - Wirtz And Music 2009 (Fantastic Voyage)




'Latin A Go-Go' LP originally released in 1966 on Ember Records.
'Smooth And Easy' LP originally released in 1966 on Ember Mood Music Library Records.



Regular readers of my old blog and this one know that I am a very big fan of Mark Wirtz and his work.
These two albums, which he completed for Ember records in 1966, are works shortly before he became known to a wider audience through his collaboration with the band ''Tomorrow'' and Keith West.




On these two albums the musical direction is different. He produced two albums here which mainly offer Easy Listening and Lounge music. However, here one should not use the terms in the sense of the ''pop'' movement of the sixties, but in their actual meaning.
If you like Easy Listening and Lounge Music, you will find two albums here, one of which I think is great and the other one is also a good album from the arrangement, but it's a little too much in the direction of the bar lounge. But that's a matter of taste, of course. (Frank)
