Monte Carlo & His Orchestra!
Loyal readers of this lofty blog no doubt recall that my long-time friend & musical pal, Peitor Angell, is one of my very best friends on Earth and has been since we met while working at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City in 1985.
Peitor has many delightful alter egos. Actually "Peitor Angell" is an alter ego -- it's not his real name. He has this long, extravagant Italian name. However, one of [his real name]'s alter egos is Monte Carlo & His Orchestra!
Where Peitor Angell composes incredible film scores and writes & produces records for various divas, etc., Monte Carlo & His Orchestra (yes, he plays most of the instruments in the orchestra) is all about really relaxing &/or wonderfully fun lounge music and that great old easy listening, jazzy stuff. He currently has 2 Christmas singles out, featuring vocals by Kristi Rose -- a singer with an astonishingly powerful, fun & beautiful voice! (Yes, the exact opposite of the kind of voice I have!! I always wished I could sing like Kristi, but I can only sing like Kristi if I'm singing along with Kristi and pretending to be her; turn the record player off and suddenly it's just me again...) (sigh)
Anyhow... Here are the tunes on CD Baby. They'll be available on itunes, as well, in a few days!! Check 'em out, gang!! Buy a few!!
Christmas Time is Here
You're the best Present for Me
