662.1 | Good Sounding Disc!! | RSTS32::VMILLER | What you don't mean can't hurt you | Mon Mar 02 1987 17:22 | 6 |
| "Round-Up" is an excellent disc. It was very popular at CES in
Las Vegas (a lot of the demo booths were playing it - especially
the car audio people!!).

| I also highly recommend this disc - but then again, I'm a big fan
of all of Erich Kunzel's recordings, particularly the TELARC stuff.
I "discovered" Kunzel via a recommendation of his "Time Warp" disc;
Don Dorsey's "Ascent" on this disc is outstanding. I wish all discs
could be as well done as these are - they're pure ear candy.

Finally (over a year later) picked this disc up on sale $12.99 -
TELARC discs run $15.99 straight across the board out West.
I was quite impressed by the orchestration in this, but was very
disappointed in Frankie Laine's vocals. Anyone who's ever heard
Frankie's originals on Columbia from the late 50's, early 60's knows
what I'm talking about.
Overall the sound is standard TELARC & Kunzel/Cincy Pops - Excellent
I recommend the disc just on the strength of the orchestra alone,
but if you're expecting to hear the Frankie Laine of "Call of the
Wild Goose"/"Desire" fame - you'd be better off finding his original
Mercury (late 40's/early 50's) recordings or his Columbia stuff
(late 50's thru 60's).
