Lettermen - The First Four Albums and More!

The Lettermen's name was retro but their sound was progressive. With three baritone vocalists, they wove their kaleidoscopic harmonies around the melody, trading leads and alternating highs and lows in dynamic clusters of close harmony. This collection includes their first four albums, released in 1962 and 1963: A SONG FOR YOUR LOVE, ONCE UPON A TIME; JIM, TONY AND BOB and COLLEGE STANDARDS. As for the 'And More' in the title of this collection. That represents the 10 bonus tracks here, including three very rare tracks they recorded during their brief pre-Capitol stint on Warner Bros.: 'Their Hearts Were Full of Spring,' 'When' and 'Two Hearts'. Especially for Lettermen collectors, we've included a stellar unreleased version of the Perry Como classic 'Wanted', cut during their first Capitol LP session, as well as the original mono hit single version of 'When I Fall in Love,' which boasts different vocal takes and a mix that is completely different from the LP version here.
