Volume Two

The Platters

Twelve tracks of velvet vocal harmonies and mid-century romanticism. A masterclass in sophisticated R&B that bridges the gap between jazz standards and early rock.

1956 · Mercury

A sophisticated, velvet-draped romanticism that feels both grand and deeply intimate.

Moments Worth Listening For

The subtle, walking bassline that anchors the otherwise ethereal arrangement of track 10
The dramatic, soaring crescendo that closes out the brief but intense performance of track 11
