Marty Paich - The Modern Touch





Beautiful 'now' sounds and one of my most played items. This is a CD rip done by yours truly in Ogg Vorbis 360k vbr. If you're a luddite that is confounded by these new fangled doo hicky formats don't ask for a re-up as there's lots of conversion programs out there if you really must.

I must re-iterate however that I have done some rips at 360k MP3 and to my ears Ogg definitely sounds better.

Anyhow thanks to the kind person who sent me this CDR sometime ago and my faltering memory just can't remember who it was. Its actually a twofer "The Broadway Bit" and "I Get a Boot Out of You" both albums very fine indeed.

Part 1

Part 2

Hain't ne'er seen this'n before.

I could swear it was just the other day I saw Paich as the composer for an episode of "Ironside" or something. Boy did he get around.

He hasn't done all that many solo records or not that I can find, but he's worked as arranger and producer for Al Hirt, Mel Torme, Seals and Croft and Jack Jones to name a few.

A busy man I'd say.
