The New Country-Pop Favorites

Album Director: Ernest K. Dominy. Quadrophonic Engineer: Carson Taylor. Note the two above are not involved in anything but selecting and engineering for this special release in SQ quad. Liner notes: "Within the last three or four years, a phenomenal combination has occurred in American music - the worlds of Pop and Country have joined hands to produce a wonderful, new kind of flavor-packed sound that has taken the nation by what can only be called "friendly persuasion." The songs born of this alliance are warm and meaningful, with an uptown beat. They're songs that "sophisticated" entertainers like Nancy Wilson and Al Martino can do easily and comfortably... they're songs that lend themselves to the kind of sumptuous instrumental treatment that Al de Lory provides. The the stars that have emerged from Country-Pop are an exciting, new breed... Glen Campbell, Bobbie Gentry and everyone's favorite Tennessee Ernie Ford. Listening here, it's easy to see that Country-Pop is not only a perfect combination, but one that will last."
