BOB BELDEN PRESENTS - STRAWBERRY FIELDS (1997) REPOST

In this post, I present an excellent album, titled "Bob Belden Presents - Strawberry Fields," a tribute to the Beatles.

It was produced by Bob Belden and originally released in Japan by a division of Toshiba. It was subsequently released in Brazil in 1997 by EMI, under the Blue label. This label became known for releasing albums by jazz artists.

The album stands out for its reinterpretations, instrumentals, and great performances, especially by singer Dianne Reeves, whom I greatly appreciate. I'm sure you'll enjoy it once you hear it.

The musical selection consists of the following songs:

01. Come together - Cassandra Wilson & Dianne Reeves;
02. Strawberrry fields - Cassandra Wilson;
03. Tomorrow never knows - Dianne Reeves;
04. I'm only sleepeing - Holly Cole;

EDDIE MATHINE - MÚSICA NEW AGE - CON LOS EXITOS DE LOS BEATLES - VOLUME 1 (2000) REPOST

In this post I present an instrumental tribute in the New Age style. It is the album "Música New Age - Para Sientirse Bien - Con Los Exitos de Los Beatles - Volume 1", performed by the Argentine Eddie Mathine. Unfortunately, I couldn't find anything about this artist on the internet.

This album was released in Brazil in 2000, by the Inter CD Records label and distributed by Eldorado Fonográfica. In my opinion, as a Beatles fan, it is worth listening to their songs from a New Age perspective. It was cool.

The songs that make up the selection are the following:

01. Eleanor rigby;
02. You won't see me;
03. Norwegian wood;
04. Something;
05. With a little help of my friend;
06. Hey Jude;
07. Let it be;
08. A hard day's night;
09. Help;
10. All my loving.
