Paris DJs Soundsystem presents 1962 - Standards Versions and Revamps Vol.3

Paris DJs Soundsystem presents 1962 - Standards Versions and Revamps Vol.3 (MP3 Podcast on www.ParisDJs.com) 2014-10-09 Opening with a standard penned by Doc Pomus and Phil Spector for Ben E. King, this selection of (mostly) covers released in 1962 shows once again that classics are timeless. The sixties are still in the early stages and the global vibe is swinging, just starting to get a little poppy, as you'll discover while listening to the calypso, blues, soul, jazz and latin musical arrangements we've picked here. Pass the word if you like the series, we'll be back with a new episode by the end of next week... Tracklisting : 01. Ben E.
