Since I just posted the After Hours picks the last couple of days, I thought I woud revisit this two volume set. The links were dead anyway, so I updated them here. I sort of quote what I wrote before: Some standards and a few not yet, but all are appropriate for cocktails or dinner. I like all of these. They are classics or classic sounding to me. I remember watching the movie Umbrellas Of Cherbourg as a kid and just loving Catherine Deneuve. It always stayed with me and is perfect for this pick. Sorry, but Bjork got in here twice. Once in her pre-Sugarcubes band Gling Glo and once solo much later. I just do love the sound of both tracks and Luktar-Gvendur was the inspiration for making this playlist. BTW, I really like the marbling technique for the cover background. Fun to do!
