The contemporary music of today is undergoing the most radical and exciting change I have witnessed in the entire twenty-five years I have been associated with the recording industry.
The harmonic structures, melodic lines and rhythmic backgrounds used in these new songs are most refreshing, and chord structures and melodies like those found in Yesterday, A Man and a Woman, Don’t Sleep in the Subway, Music to Watch Girls By and It Must Be Him, to give a few examples, show each thought and portray fine musicianship on the part of the young writers of today.
Personally, I find the radical departure from the old, stereotyped chord progressions very uplifting and stimulating, and I do hope you will enjoy the performances of the singers in this album of today’s contemporary music as much as we enjoyed recording it for you.
