Parks, Van Dyke
Arrangements, Vol. 1
This new compilation is presented by Van Dyke Parks' Bananastan label. All of the tracks on this album, by a diverse
range of artists, have one thing in common: they were arranged by Van Dyke Parks. This compilation covers Parks' first
solo recordings through the classic creative period of Warner Brothers, where his arrangements and production can be
found throughout the roster. Including both rare sides and hit records, Van Dyke's touch can be heard throughout these
fine tracks. From the mid sixties through the early seventies, this new compilation contains 15 classics appearing
together on one album for the first time. From the earliest work of Ry Cooder to classic Little Feat; Bonnie Raitt's
Calypso to Arlo Guthrie's gospel; The Mojo Men's psychedelic sounds to six rare or unreleased Van Dyke Parks' solo
recordings; from Dino Martin Jr's hot reggae to Beau Brummel's Sal Valentino's and Little Feat's Lowell George's solo
sides; these 15 songs all have the arranging imprint of the great Van Dyke Parks. Tracks: 1. Donovan's Colours (Mono
single mix - performed by George Washington Brown) 2. Come to The Sunshine (perf. Van Dyke Parks) 3. The Eagle And Me
(Van Dyke Parks) 4. Friends And Lovers (Sal Valentino) 5. Alligator Man (Sal Valentino) 6. Farther Along ( Van Dyke
