2 LPs on 1 CD: ACADEMY AWARD WINNERS (1963)/THE SOUL OF THE DRUMS (1963).
Originally released on Reprise (6079) & Reprise (6100).
Liner Note Author: Lawrence Stewart.
Originally released on Reprise, these two Les Baxter albums have been reissued for the first time on CD by Collectables. Neither session is particularly interesting. Soul of the Drums is the better of the two sessions, featuring smooth exotica rhythms that aren't as colorful as previous Baxter releases. Academy Award Winners contains lackluster versions of hits from popular films of the early '60s, including "Days of Wine and Roses," "Baby Elephant Walk," and "Boy's Night Out." Not an essential collection by a long shot; pick up his material recorded for Capitol instead. ~ Al Campbell
