5 out of 5 stars All time classic instrumentals plus unreleased tracks.......1998-11-29

I leapt with joy when I realised that all the Piltdown Men tracks were to feature on a CD issue. Back in the early sixties, I bought what I thought was the entire PM catalogue (on vinyl, of course). Tracks such as Brontosoarus Stomp, Gargantua, Fossil Rock and, for me, the best version ever of Irving Berlin's A Pretty Girl is Like a Melody (great for striptease parties). Also included is the track which was to be the original Gargantua but was shelved and later appeared as Be A Party, the B side of Mad Goose which appeared in Britain on the Pye International label by the Sons of the Piltdown Men. The unissued (in Britain) single of Night Surfing is a bit of a disappointment as it doesn't have the same oomph as the other 'originals' by the classic line up. If the style sounds familiar, the sax is by the guy from the Champs and indeed the other side was a bossa nova version of Tequila. In addition to the Piltdown Men tracks (which I would gladly have paid the price for alone), the CD is filled up with some other instrumentals from Capitol's catalogue making this CD a must for any serious instrumental collector. Congratulations to Mayorga, Adleman and Cobb for creating these timeless masterpieces.
