Review Text
Vinyl LP pressing. Pleasure For Music present a reissue of Dick Hyman's The Age of Electronicus, originally released in 1969. In his long career, Dick Hyman has covered a great variety of music fields, from Broadway through music for film and television to jazz, classical, pop, and electronic music. The Age of Electronicus is one of his electronic pop jewels. A breathtaking sequence of reworked hits of the day including outstanding electro-versions of Lennon/McCartney's classics such as "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da" and "Blackbird" and Bacharach's "Alfie". A whole feast of analog Moog sounds, primitive drums machines, repetitive bass lines, and lots of robotic beats. All packaged in a memorable, colorful album cover.
