Les Baxter - The Singles

A correspondent has advised me that an interesting selection of Les' Capitol 45s has been compiled by this blog.

You can choose to download there or grab this edited version here.

I haven't changed the actual coding of 320kps MP3 but I have tidied up the tags and renamed the files to show the Capitol disc number for each track. I've also normalised the sound using Replay Gain but you of course need to use that to see any benefit.

The sound is very good in the brief listen I had and the music is more from ahem Les ' Romantic style (somebody didn't like me using the word schmaltz).
