"Medley King" Charlie Kunz is the hero of this marvelous and elegant collection of Medleys: Hits and Favourites brought out in 2008 by Rex records. 48 regulation length tracks (approximately three minutes apiece) bear witness to the fact that after leading a successful dance orchestra during the late 1920s and early to mid-"30s, Kunz established himself as a master of the piano medley. Since there are several titles per track, this monument to accessibility gradually comes to resemble a goldmine of lovable innocent popular ditties from a bygone era. Glowing examples include "A Pretty Girl Is Like a Melody," "The Music Goes "Round and Around," "In a Little Gypsy Tea Room," "Anything Goes," "Pink Elephants," "On the Beach at Bali Bali," "I Can"t Tell a Waltz from a Tango," "Hot Diggity," and "There"s a Pawnshop on a Corner in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania." ~ arwulf arwulf, All Music Guide
