David Carroll - Let's Dance Again
[STB 60152]

Mercury Records Stereo 7" Tape 71/2 IPS

Although David Carroll's string of easy listening orchestrated LPs in the '50s and '60s garnered him a reputation as a top-shelf arranger, he was concurrently working behind the scenes as the head of Artists and Repertoire (A&R) at Mercury Records, producing early rock & roll classics by the Diamonds, the Platters and the Smothers Brothers. After his Top 40 outing Let's Dance (1958), Carroll issued the follow-up, Let's Dance Again! (1960) to an even more enthusiastic reception, climbing all the way to number six during the first week of 1960. Modern consumers will be initially struck by the lightweight scores, conjuring comparisons to typical vintage elevator music. However, the incorporation of discreet stereophonics made Carroll's releases a coup for audiophiles -- whose selection of stereo discs was limited to sound effects and percussion-laden gimmickry.
