Enoch Light - Persuasive Percussion (1960)

Enoch Light - Persuasive Percussion Vol One, 1960
      If you have not ever heard an Enoch Light album then you have missed out.......definitely space age music for the cocktail lover in you ! This is THE ULPTIMATE Jet-age, bachelor Pad, Shagadelic music on Earth ! Persuasive Percussion was his first Command LP and was a huge hit reaching Number One on the U.S. Pop charts in 1960. Audiophiles fell in love with Enoch Light as his Command label and later Project 3 albums were sonically perfect. I have collected a ton of Command Sparton albums over the years simply because of the high quality recordings.

    Musically this is lounge exotica........pure lounge with some very cool instrumentation and brilliant percussion. Time to spark up the ol' lava lamp and incense everyone.........this one is gonna take to some exotic place where you have always wanted to go to ........but were afraid to ask........

This is some pretty cool music that is ideal for chilling out to !

Xylophones, marimbas, sax, hand percussion, cha cha cha's, cow bell.....holy god man !!

Bring back the shag carpet
