Avid's West End label has delved deep into the archives for it's latest release in the Essential Collection series. Formed in Germany in 1927 through an ad placed in a German newspaper seeking 'beautiful sounding voices (not over the age of 25) for outstanding new ensemble.' The Comedian Harmonists became a worldwide sensation in the late 1920s and 1930s. Finally disbanding due to Nazi pressure on all things Jewish, they fled Germany only to regroup in Vienna as The Comedy Harmonists. This finely re-mastered double CD captures both permutations of this great but overlooked group and includes two very recognisable tunes from Walt Disney's Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs, recorded would you believe in Abbey Road!
