Set of 6 Percussion Albums Persuasive, Provocative, Pertinent.
Persuasive Percussion was an album performed by Terry Snyder and the All Stars and released in 1959 by ommand Records (run by noch Light). The packaging includes the first use of the atefold cover which, upon being unfolded, lists information about each selection. The iner notes state that the album may be used to test audio equipment, due to the tero placement of sounds independently in either the left or right channel (something common today, but extremely innovative in 1959). The album cover artwork, by osef Albers, is minimalistic in style, consisting of an arrangement of dots. The album was the first volume in a series of Persuasive Percussion releases. Provocative Percussion was the second release of the Percussion albums. Both Persuasive Percussion and Provocative Percussion had four volumes released over the next several years.
In April 1960, the album reached number 1 on he Billboard's Stereo Action Albums chart, and stayed at the top for 13 weeks. It spent a total of 124 weeks on the top selling albums charts.
Pertinent Percussion Cha Cha's
This set of intensely vibrant cha chas performed by Enoch Light and the Light Brigade are from two best-selling albums - 'Pertinent Percussion Cha Chas' and 'I Want To Be Happy Cha Chas'. Digitally re-mastered and in spectacular stereophonic sound, they are appearing here for the first time on CD. Enoch Light, grand master of sonic reproduction and beautiful musical experiences, once again gives us music that is glowingly melodic and at the same time, brimming with strong, percussive and compelling rhythms. "I Want to Be Happy Cha Cha" was a hit single for Light in 1959.Provocative Percussion is a studio album by Enoch Light and The Light Brigade, also known as the Command All-Stars. It was released in 1959 on Command Records (catalog no. RS 806-SD). The album cover artwork is by abstract painter osef Albers, like its predecessor.
