The title of this totally cool compilation should really be "Music For A 1950's New York Shopping Spree" because that is the emotional response I get listening to these groovy delights. Some of the tracks remind me of music that has been used on The Simpsons ( Homer's land of chocolate fantasy? ), it's a fast paced and kitsch collection with more than a bit in common with elevator muzak. Laurie Johnson's work just sparkles with "Happy Go Lively" being the standout in my opinion. Other highlight include "Trafficscape" by Eric Winstone, "Bargains Galore" by Stuart Combie & Dennis Berry and the swinging "Stop Gap" by Wilfred Burns". As with "Music For T'V Dinners: The 60's" the set culminates with a Johnny Pearson classic.
This CD is a fun ride from start to finish and will appeal to library music, easy listening and lounge fans in equal measure. The download link is courtesy of Bryan's Lounge.

This was a great collection. TV Land used music from this when they used to do fake commercials (back in the days when they actually showed TV shows instead of movies and "original" programs.)
"Happy Go Lively" was used in The Avengers as well.

Any chance of re uploading this sample~ on mediafire?
Yes, I am replacing all my Megaupload links. It is just taking a little while because there were quite a few of them. I'll try to make this one a priority.
Thankyou
New link is up.
