If I Had A Hammer Double Play- #642

Lopez, Trini

1995 Tring 1/1/95

A nice find if you like Fold with a Spanish accent.  This music was hot and best selling in the early 1960's.  It is mild and entertaining but one wonders how it ever was as successful as it was.  Mr. Lopez soon faded into musical history after a hit first album and then a weak follow.  As well it should be, his novelty lasted only so lone.  A lot of popular folk music done differently is the reason to have this album

Joshua Judges Ruth - #340

Lovett, Lyle

1992 MCA Records 9/1/91

Country with such soul and R&B and Pop.  It is difficult to classify as country but this is a country artist.  It is a contemporary male vocal album that I have to pull out every time I here this artist's name - I classified this as pop until I heard his Step Inside the House album. He has the soul qualities on that album but the music is mostly country.  This one is not.  And, he was married to Julia Roberts?  What a guy!

Lovett, Lyle

1998 Curb MCA 9/22/98

Love Lyle, sometimes, don't like at all at others.  His delivery is here, too much country though, not enough of his rhythm an blues and soul that he infuses into country so well.  The interceding twang songs ruin the timbre of this album but pieces are there that I love too.

Deep Breakfast  - #386

Lynch, Ray

1986 Music West 1/1/86

This is likely the quintessential New Age album.  Celestial Soda Pop is the first selection and Deep Breakfast and CSP are synonymous.  EVERYONE likes CSP. The rest of the album is great, the pieces together are not thematic so there is no reason to listen to all of them together.  BUT, once you listen to them each on their own merits you have a masterpiece album.
