Living Pianos - Music For Romance (1970) [Hi-Res]

A Romantic Recital.
A quiet room, a piano, gentle sounds—music for romance.
For some reason the piano has always been surrounded by romance—the all-alone composer in his study putting notes together for a particular someone; the old-fashioned evening, singing songs arm in arm in the parlor; the cigarette, the rose and the glove; Clara Schumann, Gershwin, Living Pianos.
This is the very first Camden album by the Living Pianos and the debut is a handsome one. The mood is personal, sentimental, unashamedly romantic. The songs arc Hair I Gone Dreamy, Easy to Love, The Touch of Your Lips, April in Paris, Liebestraum, Lore Theme from ".Romeo and Juliet." T bis Is All I Ask, The Champagne Waltz and a Living Pianos original, Love Is for Amateurs.
The Living Pianos’ distinctive, effortless style makes it all sound so easy. The arrangements arc deceivingly simple. The melody is there and the words come to mind as you listen. You're almost the singer, magnificently accompanied by Living Pianos. The lights are soft, the mood is painted in blues and greens, there’s an end-of-the day feeling and. perhaps, the beginning of something good. Those ’’tinkling" pianos next door? The Living Pianos and Music for Romance.
