ON THE BACK OF THE JACKET:
The search for a hit record is the search for "a sound," that unique combination of an artist's individuality, imaginativemusical arrangement, and skillful engineering. Since the release of Lover and Brazil in 1948 no one in popular music has been as successful in creating hits as Les Paul. No one has been as successful in achieving that unique combination.
In this collection of hits Les Paul demonstrates how he has expanded his "overdubbing" techniwue to reflect the moods of every sort of modern song. He has found the lonely wonder in What Is This Thing Called Love, the brilliant excitement in Lady of Spain, and the moving, Oriental quality of Caravan.
Whether a finished version contains two or twelve overdubbed musical lines, the impeccable musical taste of Les Paul always places a song in a fit and original setting. The humor of Swiss Woodpecker and Man on the Flying Trapeze is ideally suited to the crisp precision of the multiple recording technique, but when the songs call for a more delicate blend, Les Paul can produce the nostalgic coloring of Sleep or By the Light of the Silvery Moon.
Translating the musical acrobatics of Nola, the exuberant wit of Hip Hop Boogie, or the wistful jazz of South, Les Paul performs with superb artistry in a musical dimension he has made familiar, identifiable, and beloved - The New Sound!
