Sweet Singing Swing with the Bill Gannon 3 - Liner Notes
Sweet Singing Swing with the Bill Gannon 3 Carlton - STLP 12/114 Stereo (Note : Text submitted to this site by Charlemange)
Sweet Singing Swing with the Bill Gannon 3 THIS IS THE STORY OF THREE MEN, A SOUND, AND A TOWN
Larry Hovis ... A college grad, this lad holds a PHD in rhythm. Let his "sticks" meet the "skins," or let his lyric tenor voice fill the room, and you know this is a musician all the way! Only one thing could top Gannon and Hovis together ... and that was Gannon, Hovis and ... Gerry Lloyd ... Serious and subdued in his private life, but capable of making a string bass sing with joy. Add his resonant bass voice and you've added the final complement to an entirely new trio -and in turn- an entirely new sound!
Everything's been done with old favorites that could possibly be done . . ." they cried ... and then they heard what the Bill Gannon Trio could do with old favorites! They heard a bass that captured subtle harmonies and overtones ... a piano not off in left-field, but off-beat ... drums that injected more than "just rhythm" . . . and most of all, they heard "swing," not only in the instruments, but in the voices of the men who played them. What they heard, and what you will hear are contemporary interpretations of standard ballads and rhythm tunes. In each tune, you will recognize the words and melody, as Bill Gannon believes you should, but you will not recognize the marriage of unique arrangements and equally unique vocal blendings. For this is a new sound ... a new sound that began in a vibrant Texas town! The Town! Houston born and Houston bred are the three men of the Bill Gannon Trio. In the chic bistros and smart supper clubs in and around this booming Port city, night owls have been chanting their praises. Disk jockeys throughout the Lone-Star state agree that here are real "comers." And so, without further fanfare, here is the Bill Gannon Trio and their collection of ... SWEET SINGING SWING! The Town!

Carlton Record Corporation "handcrafted" to bring you "unlimited high fidelity sound Why this Carlton record is "handcrafted"... many so-called "high fidelity" records go through a process of "electronic limitation" that speeds up production but actually compresses or "limits" dynamics. Every Carlton record bypasses this "limitation." Each record is actually "handcrafted" from its inception in the studio through every processing and production operation. True balance is achieved by using only "unlimited sound mixing" and "hand re-recording techniques"... electronic limiters are flatly forbidden. All "handcrafted, unlimited" Carlton Records, therefore feature optimum dynamic range and frequency registration. They are probably the only records which AESTHETICALLY as well as technically offer real stereo high fidelity. THIS IS A STEREO RECORD. For proper reproduction play only at 33 1/3 rpm with a microgroove STEREO pick-up using RIAA or similar playback compensation. This record can be played on non-stereo turntables but for this purpose the consumer is urged to select the equivalent CARLTON Monaural record. Recorded at Regent Sound Studios, New York City. ©Carlton Record Corporation Printed in U.S.A.
