The John Schroeder Orchestra - The Dolly Catcher

Facts The Dolly Catcher is an album by British composer and producer John Schroeder originally released in 1967 with his orchestra. The album features a mix of easy listening, boutique pop, and instrumental tracks characteristic of late-60s British orchestral pop. John Schroeder became known as one of the chief exponents of what the British called easy: mostly instrumental recordings that welded easy listening pop arrangements to soul, rock, and psychedelic source material. In the mid-'90s, there was a newfound demand for this sound, as it became all the rage in London clubs, where his blaring horn charts and pumping Hammond organs provided suitable background music for those looking for the cutting edge in retro sounds. We think it's time for a new revival!
