Lenny Dee: Most Requested!


Most Dee-manded!


Of all the Pop Organists of the Easy Listening / Space Age Pop era, Lenny Dee is my favorite. While others played with much technical savvy and brilliant arrangements, Lenny performed with a flair, rhythm and humor all his own.


This is a great record. It includes two pieces by Henry Mancini (always a plus!) and handful of others that I absolutely love. All are played with the patented "Lenny Dee Bounce" and plenty of Pizazz!

Lenny Dee: Most Requested!
  1. Hello, Dolly!
  2. Canadian Sunset
  3. The Girl from Ipanema (Garota De Ipanema)
  4. Baby Elephant Walk
  5. Bluesette
  6. Moonlight Cocktail
  7. Java
  8. Summertime in Venice
  9. Cafe Oriental
  10. On Green Dolphin Street
  11. The Pink Panther
  12. Honky Tonk Train Blues
