The first ever UK CD release of this smooth early soul mans great Cadence recordings - and the first ever CD, anywhere in the world, to feature everything that Lenny cut for Cadence between 1959 and 1964.
Fans of the Big City Soul stylings of Walter Jackson and Roy Hamilton appreciate the work of Mr Welch, as do all lovers of classic American Pop of the early 1960s.
Produced by Archie Bleyer, the man behind the original success of the Everly Brothers, Andy Williams, Johnny Tillotson and more. Arrangers include some of the top names of the period - Bert Keyes, Chuck Sagle etc.
Includes Lennys 1963 US Top Five hit version of the standard Since I Fell For You, and its Top 30 hit follow up revival of Ebb Tide.
Also includes the original vocal version of A Taste Of Honey, as copied by the Beatles on their "Please Please Me" album.
Exquisitely mastered from original Cadence sources, this wonderful music has never sounded better, nor been presented better, than it is here.
