I will have to listen. Thank you for the suggestion! I always love a good vocalist. EG, Jussi Bjorling.

Non-trumpet music? Hmmmm...

How about legendary vocal harmonies? The Beatles on the Revolver album with "Here, There, and Everywhere"

Not entirely non-trumpeting, but...

Martin Denny! Was weaned on his stuff.

Used to see his group on local (Honolulu) T.V.. His xylophone player, Arthur Lyman, branched off on his own group. He (Arthur) was actually a good jazz player. Used to hear him in jam sessions.

When I listened to “Quiet Village” (1956), it immediately reminded me of Pink Floyd’s “Granchester Meadows” on the 1969 Ummagumma Album, utilizing the sounds of nature to set the scene of the music.

@SSmith1226 Ummagumma's my favorite Pink Floyd album by far. Roger Waters, in spite of all his musical ability, is my least favorite Pink Floyd member by far.

I understand. We don’t need no Roger Waters!

All that aside, in 1969, one of the most memorable parts of the album version of “Granchester Meadow” was the ending. If you had a good set of stereo headphones, or better yet, an egg shaped stereo chair, there was a fly buzzing from ear to ear and a person, trying to swat it. Ultimately the fly loses. Having recently been introduced to stereo at that time it was great.
To digress further my true introduction to stereo was in 1966 or 1967, listening to Miles Davis and Gil Evans 1959 album, Porgy and Bess in an egg shaped stereo chair. It was one of the most memorable musical experiences I ever had. It was a real awakening!

@SSmith1226 That was the era of quadrophonic sound: four speakers, each with its own track. Judicious placement in the room would result in interesting effects, indeed.

@SSmith1226 Wow. What a line-up of legends. Thanks

Listened to this yesterday, as I do every year out of respect. My favorite tenor sax player and my favorite pianist!

This guy might not play trumpet but he sure has pipes. Its not often a person gets to hear that level of "happy" in a song. Bravo!
Kinda makes me want a beer and some bratwurst.
