Recorded at the dawn of the prolific 70s UK library music boom, Music By Lee Mason was part of the successful Chappell Recorded Music series-produced for television, film, and advertising professionals. Working under the "Lee Mason" alias, Pete Moore used the format to explore a wide palette of sounds: funky rhythm sections, fat horns, bumping bass lines, and catchy melodies that reveal both sophistication and swing. Across it's eleven tracks, the album moves seamlessly between funky grooves, jazzy arrangements, and cinematic moods. "Shady Blues" in particular has become a cult favourite among crate-diggers, it's slow-burning groove later sampled by Madlib for the Lootpack track "Answers" featuring Quasimoto, giving the piece new life in the spheres of hip-hop and digging culture. A prolific composer and orchestrator for television, radio, and film, Pete Moore (1924-2013) worked with the likes of Peggy Lee, Fred Astaire, and Connie Francis, bridging the worlds of orchestral scoring
