Destination Bermuda: 25 Yearning Melodies / Var

Bermuda - for almost all of us an unattainable exotic place of desire, the dream destination of paradisiacal conditions and the inspiration of songwriters and film makers. -Bear Family Recordsr takes you there with Latin American rhythms, a touch of calypso, some rock'n'roll, hillbilly and pop with light lyrics, with rhumba, mambo and cha-cha-cha. -Your escort and author of the illustrated travel guide is Roland H. Rumtreiber, who also took care of the careful technical processing of the recordings. Bermuda - the very sound of the word makes your gaze wander, your nerves tingle, and the palms of your hands wet with excitement. Bermuda - hardly anyone can afford to go, let alone live there. Bermuda - paradisiacal refuge and mysterious fata morgana amid a desert made of water. Bermuda is the northernmost place of subtropical and tropical climes, created by a raging volcano and sculpted by colorful coral reefs. It is a place of marvels, dreams, and transcendence, perfect for lovers. Bermuda is an excellent inspiration for songwriters specializing in yearning lyrics, sweet melodies, and a passion for hot tropical rhythms. So - our latest addition to Bear Family Records' popular 'Destination Series': Bermuda - brings you a wide array of Latin rhythms (not native to Bermuda), some rough rock and roll, and even a souped-up hillbilly bopper by none other than Marlon 'Madman' Mitchell. Featured prominently on our compilation are the islands' own Talbot Brothers-or The Talbot Brothers of Bermuda, as they are better known. If you like rhumba, mambo, cha-cha, calypso, and your lyrics on the light side, 'Destination Bermuda' is for you-no need to travel far. Get lost at home, grab an easy chair, get some sand between your toes (don't rob the bird's cage), fill up with a beverage of your choice, close your eyes - and relax! Welcome to Bermuda - big ease for a mid-price! Fill up again and get lost. Bear Family Airlines will take you to Bermuda (and maybe back).
