Derek and Ray The Two Piano Sound of Two Different Worlds [1965]


RCA Victor LSP-3426

"Derek and Ray bring an excitement and enthusiasm to their piano teaming.  They accentuate the lush and beautiful melodies of these songs, avoiding the pitfalls of the too-simple or the over-arranged.  There's an infectious, buoyant gaiety to their playing that brings a fresh lilt to the lushest of melodies.

This "Two Different Worlds" collection reflects characteristic American and English treatment of the love ballad.  The time span ranges from the Broadway stage of today back to the unforgettable tunes of the 1930s.

From England - Derek Smith; from the U.S. - Ray Cohen with The Two Piano Sound of Two Different Worlds for you." [Excerpt liner notes]
