jaimeeduardo 11th Jan 2014 | | Vinyl AlbumAnna Moffo - Coloratura Arias (1968) | Track A2 has typo on label: "Una voco poce fà" is correct on container as "... voce poco ..."
A2 is notable for the ending high note, a sustained high F (over high C). It's unexpected in this aria, and exciting as performed by Moffo. Hearing an effect like this in a live performance would be electrifying for the audience.

jaimeeduardo 11th Jan 2014 | | Vinyl AlbumVarious Artists - Alcanzar Una Estrella (1990) | Music from the telenovela.
Marcos Valdés appears as Marcos Valdez on label. Both are phonetically equivalent in Latin American Spanish, but label is incorrect.
"Serie Digital."
|
jaimeeduardo 11th Jan 2014 | | Vinyl AlbumPablo Ruiz - Un Ángel (1988) | This talented Argentine child singer was known as Pablito, his boyhood name, when the hit ¡Oh mamá! Ella me ha besado came out. These are bubble gum rock songs, but Pablito makes them special.

jaimeeduardo 8th Jan 2014 | | Vinyl AlbumValen - Después De Ti, Nadie Más (1976) |
Arreglos musicales: Jesús Gluck.
Recorded in Spain.
Note on orthography: "Jeréz" with accent is incorrect on label, if name is Spanish, but correct on cover as "Jerez." Typo on B Side "arrelos" for "arreglos" is another indication that the U.S. produced label isn't authoritative.
|
jaimeeduardo 8th Jan 2014 | | Vinyl AlbumAl Jarreau - Live In London (1985) | Title on container: In London.
Recorded live at Wembley Arena, London, England, Nov. 1984.
Label has typo on "Teach My [sic] Tonight" It's correct on container as "Teach Me Tonight."
Songwriter on B3 is incorrect on label as "Can." Should be "Cahn." "Gene De Paul" is the usual spelling of the other songwriter.
|
jaimeeduardo 8th Jan 2014 | | Vinyl AlbumConny - Conny (1960) | Track A4 has typo on label: "Klein [sic] Lucienne" should be "Kleine Lucienne."
Orthography normalized to standard German; label seems to have been assembled without access to the letters of the German alphabet, and the typos suggest lack of familiarity with the language.
Series on container: Capitol of the World.
Track B6 sung with Rex Gildo.
Parallel track titles on container:
A1 Whether You're 15, 16, or 17
A4 If My Big Brother Knew That
A5 Little Lucienne
A6 Look for the Fun in Life
B2 A Girl at 16
B3 Dear Disc-Jockey
B5 Lipstick on His Jacket
Some of these tracks charted in Germany, 1959-1960.
Tracks A6 and B5 have been altered by the 45Worlds system to be capitalized incorrectly. Since German depends more than other languages on the correct usage of capitals, I include the correct orthography as follows:
A6: Such das Glück des Lebens --
B5: Lippenstift am Jacket.

|
jaimeeduardo 5th Jan 2014 | | Vinyl AlbumAlexander Brailowsky - Chopin Polonaises (1961) | What confused me was the Library of Congress card number with a 61 prefix. Often the prefix is the same as the pub. date. In checking their catalog, I find they use 1962 as the pub. date. I should have thought to check there first!
|
jaimeeduardo 3rd Jan 2014 | | Vinyl AlbumLucerito - Cuéntame (1989) | Lucerito is the diminutive form of her real name, Lucero. As a child singer/actress she was known as Lucerito; as an adult, usually as Lucero. She signs the container insert here as "Lucero," so this disc seems to be one of transition as she moves from child to adult performer. She achieved notable success in both career segments and is a household name in her native Mexico, and throughout the Spanish speaking world.
"Platino Especial" appears with pub. name.
"Dirigida y realizada por J.R. Flórez-L. Cerroni."
A note on the surnames Flórez/Flores: these are essentially the same surname when spoken in Latin American Spanish, but the orthography differs because, without the accent on "Flórez," the stress would fall on the final syllable, as in the word "feliz." Since "Flores" ends in "s," the rule is that stress falls on the first syllable, as in "lunes." Thus the two forms of the surname, one with accent, and one without. The distinction is often missed/confused even by native Spanish speakers, so one sees the three forms "J.R. Flores, J.R. Flórez" and "J.R. Florez" for this single person. The container insert here uses "Flores" and "Florez" [sic]. To the best of my knowledge, "J.R. Flórez" is the one and only correct form for this particular person.

jaimeeduardo 3rd Jan 2014 | | Vinyl AlbumAlexander Brailowsky - Chopin Polonaises (1961) | This is the third volume in a projected series of the complete piano music of Chopin played by Brailowsky.
Also issued in mono as ML 5705.
Disc title could be read as "Polonaises," as suggested by cover designs, but the Canadian version is already input, so will follow that example.
Pub. date an estimate, but it's accurate within a year or so.

jaimeeduardo 14th Oct 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumVarious Artists - Éxitos De Oro Volumen III (1979) | Track B5 (Flor de azalea) is a well-known romantic ballad written by Manuel Esperón. This is my favorite version with Los Piras getting it just right combining a soft studio enhanced sound and subtly yearning vocal.
