LML MUSIC Releases "David Pascucci Sings Previn and Previn."


LML Music (http://www.lmlmusic.com/) is pleased to announce the release of "David Pascucci Sings Previn and Previn." This collection of songs is exquisitely arranged by musical director Steven Applegate and superbly sung by newcomer David Pascucci. Pascucci's desire to record this semi-obscure material has given the world its first real offshoot recording of the cult movie classics "Valley of the Dolls" and "Inside Daisy Clover," with two of the songs on this album having never before been released. The first track, "Daisy" is reprised with Iyrics that were never included in the movie, and were sent by Dory Previn, herself, to be released commercially for the first time. This haunting melody finally finds a stunning life in this world premiere. "A Happy Song" was cut from "Inside Daisy Clover" as a result of time edits, but thanks to David's keen eye and research he was able to track down the song that was originally meant for Daisy's debut film "Sand Lot Kid."

This CD was recorded at the famous Capitol Recording Studios and boasts an orchestra of over twenty musicians. Adding a stroke of irony, all of the songs were originally sung by female characters in the films with the only exception being "Come Live with Me," a song sung to Sharon Tate's character by a lounge singer in the cult movie classic "Valley of the Dolls." Also included is the song that was a hit for Dionne Warwick and is the most recorded Previn & Previn song, "Theme from Valley of the Dolls." This totally unique recording will take you back to the beloved B-movie days and may even inspire you to make a mad dash for the nearest video store.

David Pascucci was born in Lancaster, NY and studied Voice and Composition Theory at the Fredonia School of Music in Fredonia, NY. After college David moved to Manhattan and showcased his talents in the local clubs, as well as working in film and television. He moved to Los Angeles in 1989 and began to frequent the open mic circuit and soon began working with Steven Applegate. The two collaborated on a series of showcases at the Oasis Cabaret and The Other Side cabaret. David recently appeared at the Cinegrill in his own show where he debuted his versions of the Previn material. This is David's first full length recording for LML Music. He not only sang all the tracks, he also overdubbed all background vocals, worked as the copyist, post production digital audio editor and associate recording engineer.
