kve777 6,888 Posted February 24, 2021 Posted February 24, 2021 Let’s hear what your favorite album is from 1958! Why 58? It’s considered the first year of stereo. In the future I will name other years so hold your other favs. For now just Le’s released in 1958. 2 1
Daddyjt 9,612 Posted February 24, 2021 Posted February 24, 2021 That’s a bit far back for me, but I’d have to go with The Kingston Trio and their self-titled release. 4 1
Receiver2000 4,013 Posted February 24, 2021 Posted February 24, 2021 Right now I like all the old jazz greats from that era (Miles Davis, Ellington, Blakey, Brubeck, Adderley) but what I remember liking most at the time was my Dad listening to Glenn Miller and my Mom listening to Connie Francis. 4

Balok 1,667 Posted February 24, 2021 Posted February 24, 2021 I like Mark's choice. My dad bought that Kingston Trio album when he was in University. My folks haven't had a turntable for, oh, about 35 years but I have the records and that Kingston Trio record is one of my favourites. 3 1

I had never heard of them until I started hanging with my in-laws 30 years ago. I enjoy the “story” format of many of their songs - and there’s a good dose of humor in many of them too. Good stuff. 1

When I got all of their albums after my mom passed away I found that they had an entire collection of The Kingston Trio albums. Started listening and found this gem.... Reminded me of another song..... 1 2
