WANTED: Al Bowlly records that have that “haunted” feel

Post by vinmarsh44 »

It doesn’t have to be the song from the Shining (great if it is though) but many of his other songs have the same nice flow and sound just as “haunting” so I would definitely be interested in those. Thanks!

Hi,
Check out my Bowlly site. The discography has 1231+ tracks in mp3 format. You can then look for the 78's you want.

I stumbled onto your Bowlly site some time ago and sent the link on to my wife who is a massive Bowlly fan. Many thanks for this project. It is much appreciated!

Which one is that song of the shining you're referring to? I cannot find in chunnys place...
I have but a few Bowlly sides, many of them uncredited vocals (Ray Noble/New Mayfair orchs), and the ones I like most are Close Your Eyes and Goodnight Vienna

Midnight, The Stars and You.

In the film it is given an echo so it sounds more haunting.

Here’s a thread about it you contributed to.:D It always creates interest. This thread had an excellent recording attached by SittingRabbit but that no longer works.
