Sounds Impossible

Marty Gold once again!

" ...

The "impossible" sound created by the Cordovox was similar to electronic keyboards of today. Horns, strings, woodwinds - all the bells and whistles - are putty in the hands of the master Cordovoxist - and all in a tidy squeeze box format! ...."

The Shelly Taylor Touch

Pastor McPurvis has a new intriguing share online:
"... Side one of this recording is all instrumental with Mr. Taylor pulling out every Cordovox trick in the book on standards such as Exodus, Blue Velvet, and Moon River.

Side two brings Mr. Taylor’s pipes into the mix as he croons of love and Loneliness (the only Shelly Taylor original on the album)

All in all this is a fun little recording. Quirky, a little rough around the edges at times, but decidedly sincere performances from a man who is clearly passionate about what he does. ..."
