Ebb Tide-Frank Chacksfield

[lwnbstrs]

Totally awesome. Takes me back to when I was 7 years old playing my parents albums on the huge console record player. For some reason, I played this over and over. Don't know why.... :)

[rainbow6562010]

Spent a marvelous afternoon with Roseanne at Rockaway Beach, NY. Fell for her...

[sawway30]

Was always a favourite, you can smell the sea, but even more spooky I was sat at the top of the cliff walk in Tenby on a winters day, listening to the tide ebbing and flowing, when all of a sudden I could hear Frank Chacksfields Orchestra playing 'Ebb Tide'. I know it was in my head, but beautiful.

This piece is a world classic. Mr Chacksfield arrangements is just beautiful!

[gladiator955]

It's sad we dont have more of this type of music around these days, I believe society would be much different,  After all dont they say music calms the savage beast....lol...

This song reminds me of Rose Rita of Lima.Our basketball team played her HS tean in 54. Saw her across the gym during reserve game. I told myself I have to meet her.I did I danced with her. Then I would oftentime hitchhike from Urbana to Lima (53 miles) to see her .We had the most wonderful passionate kisses.In 62 she visite me at U.D. where I was a senior .She told me she was marrying another . I was devastated. However this song always reminds me of her.

Does anyone have Frank Chacksfield's Heartbreaker? It's beautiful,and I see everything is there but that one. I used to have it on a 33' but gave it away.

I don't know if there exists a better song. Frank Shacksfield's arrangement is so perfect. I can see myself gazing at the sea, mesmerized and dreamy.

I live under the flight path for Stansted airport and today (17 Apr 10) is the first time I can ever remember seeing a completely blue sky (no clouds or vapour trails). The combination of this glorious weather, unsullied sky, absence of background noise and beautiful music is quite, quite wonderful. Thanks for posting it!

[ThoughtTraveler]

@gusgorilla76

Sorry to hear about your unfortunate situation. I have similar noise pollution issues. We have crazy Rednecks types around here with their....Boom Boom Boom Boom.... car stereos all hours of the day and night.

.

This is the curse of the Modern Age.

.

I wish you well.

[SPECTRE1961]

Elegant & Eternal ...

Domo !

[JimMcDadeTake]

What a great stress reliever. Music can be soothing and healing. It is a real shame that relatively few people are buying music like this wonderful piece anymore.

[nicoleto555]

Great masterpiece, Mr. Master Chaksfield is a genius. Thanks for this gift.

[itsabouttime123]

Wonderful! Wonderful!

[patthecatman]

in '52 when this number came out, mom would always say it reminded her of her home in donegal and the gulls off owey island in the distance. years later, i saw and heard what she meant. just beautiful

[rhanna12]

I've had a copied tape of light instrumental music however I have yet to find the same version of this piece that I have on my tape online-could anyone please direct me to it? It has the sea waves sound effects, seagulls behind it-however it starts with a brass instrument and goes up an octave (I believe) before the main theme starts. I'm guessing it was done a bit later than these versions because it's not as subdued as the covers posted online and it's a bit faster in tempo.

[thehificlub]

I agree. This is not the version I had on a 78 record. It somehow isn.t as convincing. even the crackles on the 78 added to the effect. Keep searching

[Lexiechick93]

This song is the song that I always can unwind to when I come home. It is perfectly done and shows music at its best! Ill always love this song.

[Politeama]

This is simply a classic in the easy listening music. Mr. Chacksfield arrangements for this beautiful piece is gentle, sophisticated as you can be, elegant and romantic. I do love this piece and brings me back good memories. Thank you for sharing this excellent music.

[wmoura56]

@Politeama I agree with you. It's amazing.

[TBJunior]
