MG-20010: Ralph Marterie And His Orchestra

[Front Cover] Label Type : black Mercury type A
Matrix Number : SIDE-A MG 20010A    3X
SIDE-B YMG 20010B MF5    A2    I



Comments

One of the early pressings in the early 1950s with the paper-type sleeve.

See other variations: 2nd type with different title and 3rd type with re-issue mark printed.

Inside The Groove

Ralph Marterie and his Orchestra with strings arrangements.

Personal Impression (and brief notes)

Despite its mellow arrangements with strings, Ralph Marterie's trumpet itself and his backing orchestra still sounds fine.

Strictly Personal Rating (to what extent I could enjoy this album)

5 out of 10
