LES PAUL / MARY FORD

THE NEW SOUND / THE NEW SOUND, VOLUME 2

Description:
Les Paul & Mary Ford created a new sound that is as terrific today as it was when introduced. This collection features that 'new sound' on songs such as "Caravan", "Nola", and "Three Little Words". Originally released on Capitol. Both The New Sound and The New Sound Volume II, recorded in 1950 and 1951, respectively, and brought together here in one set, are billed as releases by Mary Ford and Les Paul. Ford takes something of a backseat on these dates, however, as most are given over to Paul's innovative, multi tracked instrumentals. In fact, Ford is entirely absent from The New Sound, which concentrates instead on Paul's experiments with layered guitar sounds and sped up tape speeds. Ford does sing on The New Sound Volume II, and her presence is welcome, piling additional charm onto Paul's already charming guitar pop scapes. Though their most popular songs as a duo were yet to come, these early collaborations contain the seeds of the sound that would bring them success.
