The Magnificent Goldberg Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 That was the BIGGIE! 7 weeks at #1 on the pop album chart. I doubt if any other classical albums did so well. VC's other hits were Rachmaninoff: piano concerto no 3 Schumann: piano concerto in A minor My favorite Chopin Brahms: piano concerto no 2 MG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 He was from Kilgore, Tx, and his momma was our church organist for a little bit. I was just a baby then. I'm told that Van himself would occasionally hold me while my parents took communion. Whatever. They used to have a bigass billboard with a really poorly painted picture of him in downtown Kilgore, but it got run down and then finally tore down. HAsn't been there for about 30 years. Oh well.

jazzbo Posted February 28, 2013 Report Share Posted February 28, 2013 The new box set is very nice imo. The pre-order price from European amazons was a bargain! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
