THE WORLD IS PINK - 30 TRACES OF PINK

A world bathed entirely in pink – musical, nostalgic, and irresistibly charming. The World Is Pink is an extraordinary compilation from Bear Family Records® celebrating the spirit and style of the 1950s and early 1960s: playful, romantic, fashion-conscious, and always a little dreamy. Pink is far more than just a color here – it is an attitude, a promise, and a soundtrack for both heart and hips.

This lovingly curated 1-CD set comes in a high-quality Digipak and features 30 individual tracks with a total running time of approximately 71 minutes. Dancefloor favorites meet rare original recordings from 1950 to 1962, including several tracks appearing on CD for the very first time. While Rock ’n’ Roll and Rockabilly take center stage, the musical spectrum also includes Rhythm & Blues, Jazz, Pop, exotic sounds, and sweet teen tunes. The result is a richly varied musical journey through a glamorous dream world – perfect for dancing, dreaming, and falling in love.

The opening track, Pink Champagne, immediately sets the tone and appears here in three completely different versions, ranging from Doo Wop to sensually tinged Jazz and lively dance music. Thematically, everything revolves around the pink icons of the era: lipstick, perfume, elegant fashion, pink Cadillacs and Thunderbirds – all symbols of an age defined by style, desire, and aspiration.

With classics and highlights by Dodie Stevens, Georgia Gibbs, Gene Vincent, Eddie Cochran, Carl Perkins, and Jerry Lee Lewis, this compilation skillfully bridges romantic flair and powerful Rock ’n’ Roll. It is perfectly suited as a gift for special occasions or as a stylish soundtrack for atmospheric evenings.

The package is completed by a 36-page full-color booklet featuring rare photos, memorabilia, and detailed liner notes by Bill Dahl, including comments on every single track.

The World Is Pink – the perfect soundtrack for a rose-tinted journey through time.
