Instrumental Diamonds - British 60's Instrumentals CDs

Postby iefje » 29 Mar 2024, 13:07

Recently, I dug out the various artists CD "Jumpin' - Instrumental Diamonds Vol.1 - British 60's Instrumentals (1961-1964)", which includes two tracks by The Shadows ("The Miracle" and "Back Home") and two tracks by The Krew Kats ("Trambone" and "Samovar"). I know about (but do not own) the second volume "Highly Strung - Instrumental Diamonds Vol.2 - British 60's Instrumentals (1960-1966)", which features one track by The Sons Of The Piltdown Men featuring John Rostill ("Mad Goose"). I think I once read somewhere that there was also a third volume released, but cannot find it anywhere on the internet. Does anyone know about this?

Thank you Jim. I now see that I did not search well enough, because it is listed on Discogs. :oops:
