Our Take

LES PAUL & MARY FORD's "The Complete US & UK Hits 1945-1961" is a time capsule of pure musical nostalgia, showcasing the duo's innovative blend of country, pop, and jazz. With Les Paul's groundbreaking use of multi-tracking and Mary Ford's honeyed vocals, this collection is a must-listen for any music aficionado.

From their iconic hit "How High the Moon" to the classic "Vaya Con Dios," each track exudes charm and sophistication. The duo's chemistry is palpable, making it impossible not to tap your foot along to the infectious melodies. It's a musical journey that transports you back to a bygone era, where crooners ruled the airwaves and vinyl was king.

Despite the dated production techniques, there's an undeniable timelessness to LES PAUL & MARY FORD's music. Their songs are like a warm hug on a chilly evening, comforting and inviting. It's easy to see why they were such darlings of the post-war era, capturing the hearts of listeners with their smooth melodies and heartfelt lyrics.

In a sea of generic pop tunes and manufactured boy bands, LES PAUL & MARY FORD stand out as true pioneers of their craft. This album is a testament to their enduring legacy, reminding us of the power of music to transcend generations. So sit back, relax, and let the dulcet tones of LES PAUL & MARY FORD wash over you like a sweet summer breeze.
