Advice on Music


Hi,

This might be a weird question or request but I have been wanting to hear some particular or specific type of music on LP's and am trying to search for them.
I will provide 2 example's of what I am looking for. I don't know the genre exactly but have some slight idea I think.
Kind of looking for older soft vocal music or just music from long ago.

The music would be from the 1940's to the 1960's I think.
First example, Frank Sinatra One For My Baby. I have this album and love listening to this song and the others on the LP but especially that particular song.
Second example, Music: "It's Been a Long Long Time"
I like that really old skool music and songs.

Would that be big band or some other genre?

Obviously Frank Sinatra is one artist that I probably need to get more LP's of if I want that type of music but I am also thinking Nat King Cole, Dean Martin maybe? Not to familiar with artists from those times or the music but I know I like it.

I prefer LP vs CD for this type of music.

Any other suggestions?
Thnx

You might try Easy Listening or MOR, Middle of the Road.  Yeah, they're kind of  demeaning names for a genre but they might get you some decent artists to try.  I gotta tell you, too, that I inherited a lot of MOR, Sinatra-style LPs from my parents.  Both mono and early stereo.  Some of them sound truly superb.  I love 'em.
