Product Description
Bert Kaempfert – The Bert Kaempfert Decca Collection (24cd Box Set)
RELEASE DATE: 19th January 2024
Throughout his career as a bandleader, from the late 1950s until his untimely death on June 21, 1980, Bert Kaempfert was loyal to two famous record labels: the German Polydor and the American Decca label. Kaempfert’s Polydor catalog has already been re-released in various CD editions in the past, delighting old and new fans alike, now a 24-CD box set for the first time shines a spotlight on his Decca albums released in the United States. Although the repertoire of Kaempfert’s Decca and Polydor albums overlap, this collection of his American albums from 1958 to 1970 is a treasure trove of Kaempfert’s most important recordings viewed through a whole new lens.
The BERT KAEMPFERT DECCA COLLECTION gathers 24 American LPs in an attractively designed CD box. The individual albums come in paper sleeves with the iconic original Decca front + back covers, which with their striking lifestyle motifs exude the flair of the Sixties and Seventies.
