The Sounds Of Les And Barry - Looie Girl

Описание: Les Reed and Barry Mason are without question one of the most successful song-writing duos of all time. Their global hits are legendary and, though renowned for enduring successes like Tom Jones' "Delilah" and I'm Coming Home", Engelbert Humperdinck's "The Last Waltz", "Les Bicyclettes de Belsize" and "Winter World Of Love", Malcolm Roberts' Brazilian Song Festival showstopper "Love Is All", The Fortunes' "Here It Comes Again" and Des O'Connor's "I Pretend", they were also responsible for an array of heart-tugging melodies and lyrics recorded by so many of the music world's greatest female talents. Just some of these include: Connie Francis ("Mr Love"), Petula Clark ("Kiss Me Goodbye"), Julie Rogers ("I Love Him"), Dottie West ("Childhood Places"), Patti Boulaye ("Sometimes' ['Ensemble']"), Kathy Kirby ("I'll Try Not To Cry"), Mireille Mathieu ("Now That You're Gone") and Timi Yuro ("Something Bad On My Mind").
In marked contrast to any of these is the Reed-Mason song "Looie Girl" for which they entered the studio to record themselves as 'The Sounds of Les and Barry'. Featuring Les on the piano and a great late Sixties sound, I am sure this recording will delight a lot of their fans.
