Our Take

Eddie Calvert, the man with the golden trumpet, has given us a compilation album that is as melodious as it is charming. The Best Of Eddie Calvert is a nostalgic journey through the heyday of traditional pop music, where brass instruments reigned supreme and crooners stole hearts.

From the moment you press play, you are transported to a bygone era where dance halls were packed, and romance was in the air. Calvert's signature sound is unmistakable - smooth, soulful, and full of emotion. His talent on the trumpet is truly unparalleled, with each note he plays hitting you right in the feels.

The album features all of Calvert's greatest hits, including the iconic "Cherry Pink and Apple Blossom White" and the toe-tapping "Oh, Mein Papa." Each track is a testament to Calvert's mastery of his craft, as well as his ability to evoke a range of emotions with just a few notes.

Whether you're a die-hard fan of traditional pop music or just looking for something new to listen to, The Best Of Eddie Calvert is sure to delight. So sit back, relax, and let the sweet sound of the trumpet transport you to a simpler time. Eddie Calvert may no longer be with us, but his music lives on, timeless and unforgettable.
