Acker Bilk - Stranger On The Shore, I Want To Know What Love Is (Foreigner cover), Above The Stars, To All The Girls I’ve Loved Before, Longfellow Serenade, Ska Face, Arthur’s Theme, Moonlight Tango and Burgundy Street
From a (retooled*) 2001 compilation CD of music by the late** English (From Pensford, Somerset) Jazz/Easy Listening clarinetist/bandleader, “The Greatest Of”.
Fun fact: His biggest hit, 1961’s “Stranger On The Shore”, became the first hit to top both the UK and US charts simultaneously, as well as the first number one single in the US by a British artist. During the 1988 Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame induction of The Beatles, Mick Jagger namedropped it as one of the few big things that was coming out of the UK at the time before the British Invasion bands such has the Beatles and Stones came along.
*This compilation, which I bought at a thrift store, seemed to be full of mostly 80s recordings by Acker Bilk, and the version of “Stranger On The Shore” on it was marked as a re-recording. To balance this out, I replaced the version of “Stranger” with the 1961 original, and mixed some of the 80s recordings (some of which are named above) with his 60s recordings, as well as one from 1971. I know re-recordings and “more recent” tunes were a common practice on compilation CDs at the time, but c’mon! Gotta have a little authenticity here!
