I'm not sure why I didn't comment on this before - it's stunning. The band has such great "attack," something I love on those early Billy Cottons and now this. The sound is so full and rich too, with that strong bass. Did I hear "oolong" in the lyrics? If so, even more atmosphere - fragrant tea and summer breezes, one of the most perfect of perfect combinations!

Records by Herman Dareski are seldom seen these days. His records from this period have a lovely rich sound & almost always feature a xylophone contribution. Wonderful Parlophone recording compliments the arrangement.

A pleasure!!.I would hate to be without this record. This seems to be a very popular upload, the band really is first class though isn't it.

Yes, thanks for this charming old recording, '85scampi'. The European fascination with the "mysterious East" added some enjoyable harmonies to popular music.... but still no sign of a CD along those lines!

A Herman Darewski C.D is long overdue as is Jack Leon, Harry Bidgood, Tommy Kinsman, Jock McDermott and a host of others.
