Carmel Redux

Here's another little record I got in a big lot from eBay this year. It's a remake of a song that Carmel Quinn had recorded much earlier in her career. That earlier record was on a major label, but this one is on a tiny outlet as is often the case with older artists. As they quit bringing in the sales they used too, they get dropped by the majors then picked up by a more sympathetic outfit who is willing to support such an artist. The song she remakes here is The Story Of The Magi (you can find a download of that earlier version in my giant 78 dump here). She has a new duet partner here, but it's still a very similar arrangement. The flip side is a new recitation, but I'm sure you'll enjoy it. This is Carmel Quinn, Arranged & Conducted By Ted Auletta-The Story Of The Magi (with Sean Fuller) b/w One Solitary Life (GP Records 7" 45 RPM GP-554, Stereo). Note that this A-side is written by the famous team of Felice & Bodleaux Bryant!
