Bent Fabric
The Very Best Of

Description

Bent Fabric — born Bent Fabricius-Bjerre — was a Danish pianist, composer, and producer whose deceptively simple, warm piano style earned him a devoted international audience. Best known for the irresistible ‘Alley Cat,’ which topped charts worldwide in the early 1960s and won a Grammy Award for Best Rock and Roll Recording in 1963, Fabric had a rare gift for melodic accessibility that crossed language and cultural barriers with ease. This CD collects the highlights of his recording career, showcasing the playful, honky-tonk-inflected piano pop that made him one of Scandinavia’s most recognisable musical exports. An ideal introduction for new listeners and a satisfying retrospective for longtime fans…
