Sing Something Simple

Compiled by M Moritz

Cliff Adams himself actually helped to create this pack, and worked very closely with RDUK to create a collection that reflected 35 years of the BBC Radio Programme. To help sell the collection, RD held a launch party in central London to which Cliff, and notable press and media were invited, and it was here that I met with him and realised that this famous name from my past was a genuinely decent and grounded person (unlike some other artists I was to meet in the future). Unfortunately Cliff was to pass away just seven years later, but he certainly left behind a unique sound that is just not heard today.

This collection was origianlly compiled in America. It was sold in the Reader's Digest Catalogue as imported from the US with the RD Code of MBSC. After a large number of sales, it was then reproduced in the UK with full RDUK numbering. It was known in the RD office as "The Lee Remick Pack", after the American actress the model resembled on the front cover, to differentiate it from the several other collections that used the words "Most Beautiful", "Songs", "Melodies", "Memories" in their titles.

Cat No.: RDCD761-3 (RDC92421-3)
RD Code: PLAT 298
Compiled by Polygram Special Markets

This collection was not actually compiled by Reader's Digest. RD always had a non-explainable alliance with Polygram (now Universal) and it was they who created this, and many other future RD releases. Polygram had difficulty reaching their target markets for this type of product, and with RD customers being perfect for this kind of release, they licensed it complete to RD US who had a big success with it. Other RD editions, including UK, were then ordered to release the set as local product (hence the UK product numbers) and, all critisisms aside, it did sell reasonably well. Personally I never understood, why RD would share most of the profits with an inferior product that RD could have made itself, better, for a fraction of the cost.
