NEW
YORK, N.Y. — Pan Am: Music From and Inspired By the Original Series, a
collection of music from and inspired by the ABC television drama,
slated for January 17, 2012 CD release from Verve Music Group, is a
non-stop flight back to the early ’60s. The collection features 14 songs
by Buddy Greco, Bobby Darin, Ella Fitzgerald, Stan Getz & João
Gilberto with Antonio Carlos Jobim, Peggy Lee, Shirley Horn, Sergio
Mendes & Brasil ’66, Billie Holiday, Count Basie, Brenda Lee, Connie
Francis and Dinah Washington, plus new artists Grace Potter and Nikki
Jean.

According to the Verve Music Group’s SVP of A&R Jay
Landers, “The Pan Am series goes to great lengths to capture the dawn of
the jet age with accuracy, and music plays a vital role. Many of the
artists of the era are found in the classic Verve catalog so it was a
great synergistic opportunity.” Also, S-Curve/Universal recording artist
Nikki Jean sings the Lennon & McCartney classic “Do You Want To
Know a Secret.”

The TV series Pan Am follows the travels of a
young flight crew as they set off on international adventures at the
dawn of the Jet Age in the 1960s. The show captures a time when only a
few could experience a global adventure or gain a front-row seat to
history. Those lucky enough flew Pan Am, the largest, most prestigious
airline in the world. More than Coca-Cola, Elvis Presley or the
transistor radio, Pan Am exported American culture to the world abroad
and brought that world back to American shores. The crew travels to
intoxicating cities such as Paris, Berlin, Monte Carlo and Rome and
bumps into history along the way. Through their eyes, Pan Am revisits an
era nearly half a century ago. So, buckle up . . . adventure calls . . .
and thank you for choosing Pan Am.
