In 1969, Germany\u2019s party king and \u201cMr Easy Listening\u201d, James Last recorded an elaborately produced record in Hamburg, aimed specifically at his American audience. The album, however, was never released and, until now, all James Last fans have considered it something of a mystery.\r
\r
The reason why this artistically ambitious pop and rock-oriented production disappeared into the archives is unclear \u2013 perhaps there was concern at the time that the extravagant arrangements and track selection of material by Bob Dylan, The Byrds and other American artists didn\u2019t sit well with the James\u2019 more traditional audience? We\u2019ll never know but listening to the album today, almost 45 years later, it\u2019s clear that it was very ahead of its time.\r
\r
As well as Bob Dylan and The Byrds, The America Album features compositions by Jimmy Webb, Laura Nyro and Leiber & Stoller alonside some of Last\u2019s own compositions. Some of the titles could later be found in shortened and altered forms on other James Last LPs, but this is the worldwide premiere of The America Album in its entirety.\r
