Presenting another in the endless series of anonymous instrumental albums that have come out of Europe over the past several decades.
This one emanated from The Netherlands in 1992 on the Point Productions label. This company's releases turned up quite frequently in the bins of cheap CDs and cassettes at discount stores like Wal-Mart and K-Mart.
The insert manages to credit the the album cover designer but not the musicians or anyone else involved with the project.
18 Golden Piano Hits 1 (one wonders whether there was ever a second volume) is a quite enjoyable listen for the most part, with a song selection comprised mainly of easy listening standards. A real orchestra backs the piano soloist (whoever he or she may be) for the most part. Here's a sample. The MP3 is taken from a cassette.

I haven't seen this album for sale anywhere on the web, although it's listed in several CD databases. Perhaps it's available under another title. I have, however, seen it several times in thrift stores, so if it appeals to you don't give up the hunt.
