Our Take

NELSON RIDDLE's "The Joy Of Living" is like a musical hug from your cool uncle who used to be in a swing band but now makes killer cocktails at family gatherings. The album is a smooth blend of jazzy sophistication and easy-listening charm, transporting you to a time when music was all about sipping martinis and feeling suave.

RIDDLE's masterful arrangements are like a warm blanket on a chilly night, wrapping you up in layers of lush strings and groovy rhythms. From the toe-tapping swing of "Makin' Whoopee" to the dreamy haze of "Love is a Many-Splendored Thing," each track exudes a timeless elegance that is impossible to resist.

The Joy Of Living is a reminder that sometimes you just need to sit back, relax, and let the music take you on a journey. So grab a glass of your favourite tipple, put on this album, and let NELSON RIDDLE serenade you into a state of pure bliss. Trust us, you'll be glad you did.
