Memo to Alan Zweig: I’ve been meaning to mention that this was one of the first albums I ever heard it. It was part of a tiny eclectic collection we had around 1967 when I was three or four, and that ranged from Johnny Cash to Bert Kaempfert. I have fond memories of any and every record from back then but especially this classic of parallel 60s listening. My sister retrieved this from my father’s house, and I was surprised/not surprised that there wasn’t a scratch on it: we were most careful to be on our high-fidelity best when playing it. Though I was most enchanted by the Sounds in Motion collage when I was young, I remember pulling it out of retirement when I was a teenager, to discover that my earliest listening experiences included Stravinsky, Leonard Bernstein and Stephen Sondheim, Bartok, and Duke Ellington, alongside Percy Faith, Johnny Mathis, and Polly Bergen. I look forward to seeing you soon.
