Personnel & Instrumentation:

The Hollyridge Strings were an assemblage of interchangeable  studio musicians who recorded a number of easy listening albums  for Capitol Records during the era of the British invasion.  On this listing (volume 5), Mort Garson arranged and conducted the strings. Their specialty was Beatles' songs; The Hollyridge Strings under various conductors had a number of Billboard Top 20  entries and inspired many copycats like The Fantabulous Strings,  The Castaway Strings and The Sunset Strings. 

 

When you buy from a small Mom & Pop business you are not 

helping a CEO buy a third vacation home, a second yacht 

or a four hundred million dollar golden parachute.  Instead, 

you’re helping a little girl get dance lessons, a little boy get 

his team jersey, a Mom put food on the table, a Dad pay 

a mortgage, or a student pay for college. Our customers 

are our shareholders; they are the ones we strive to make 

happy. Thank you for supporting small businesses.


Thoughts for today:

That men do not learn very much from the lessons of history is the most important of all the lessons of history.

As our eyes grow accustomed to sight they arm themselves against wonder. 

                                           --- Leonard Cohen (1934-2016)
