The Living Strings was an easy listening studio orchestra, founded in 1959. It was operated by RCA Records on its budget Camden imprint. There were also related groups called the Living Voices, the Living Brass, the Living Guitars. All of the "Living..." records were produced by the same group of people.
Ethel Gabriel created "Living Strings" series of albums, which were easy-listening instrumental string versions of popular tunes, the type of music that came to be known pejoratively as elevator music.
There was no single orchestra known as the Living Strings. Most were British orchestras assembled for purposes of the albums. (Johnny Douglas was a frequent conductor and arranger.)

Because this tape is sealed new and we cannot inspect for play-ability, we offer no warranty or guarantees on how well this tape will perform once it is opened and removed from the cellophane package. Because this sealed new 8-track tape is very old, the foam pad and glue on the foil splice most often has a tendency to deteriorate over many years of time. Always inspect and replace if necessary those items before playing any sealed new 8-track tape, or damage to the tape and player may occur.
If you would like this new sealed tape gently opened and inspected for play-ability with a new pad and foil splice added, please go to "New 8-track tape repair" in the New 8-track tape category and we will gladly perform the work for you.
