First encounters with F&T were when I heard "Soundproof" at my uncle's in the mid 50s, and when they went on "I've Got a Secret" and their secret was that they could play the Minute Waltz in less than a minute. As I recall, they did it in forty seconds. I like them on Columbia, Westminster and ABC Paramount. I LOATHE "Exodus" and everything that followed on United Artists, with one or two very rare exceptions. Once I actually yanked a record of theirs off the air..Rhapsody in Blue..couldn't stand it. But everybody's entitled to make a living. dl Karl Miller wrote: > While Ferrante and Teicher were certainly not the first to use overdubbing in their music making, I found their work to be highly creative...and, often overlooked, are their early recordings of classical music like the disc of the Rachmaninoff Suites for two pianos. > > Karl > > > ARTS / MUSIC | August 6, 2008 > Lou Teicher, of Ferrante & Teicher, Popular Piano Duo of '60s, Dies at 83 > By BRUCE WEBER > Mr. Teicher’s florid and sentimental versions of movie themes and love songs made the duo gods of easy listening and earned them wide popularity. > >
