Neil Sedaka....had a string of hits...and this is American Bandstand we all were glued to way way back then.

Johnnie Ray - Just Walking In The Rain

Guess what this was a big hit too!

Frankie Laine - Moonlight Gambler (1956)

Here is a song to make you feel good....its up and fun to listen to...

Frankie Laine - "On The Sunny Side Of The Street"

Frankie Laine ruled the airwaves when we were in high school many years ago.....

Sonny Rollins-Rollins plays for Bird..

this is a good number for Sax solo...

Mama Cass - Dream A Little Dream Of Me (with lyrics)

Another favorite female voice...and the song....just a great combination of voice, melody, verse ....stays with you for a long time, bet it would sound great with a sax solo...

I Miss You So

introducing a new voice to me, anyway....and she has a lovely sultry voice reminds me of Chris Connors....what do you think?

Della Reese - Don't You Know (1959)

Wore this record out....she was wonderful....

Jerry Vale - Don't You Know (1964)

Della Reese owned this song ....but Jerry Vale has this wonderful version.....will someone bring this song back?

Al- Di- La Jerry Vale

Where you walk , flowers bloom!
How can anything be more beautiful....and the song is still wonderful after all these years... the wonderful Jerry Vale voice....wraps around the romance of the  words

Tell Me Why By The Four Aces

another big hit by the ACES

"(It's No) Sin" - The Four Aces (original 1951 version)

A monster hit  back then, and it still has appeal....melody, verse, harmony, all the aspects of good music...

Jimmy Dorsey and His Orchestra - So Rare (1957)

 A break out song in the midst of rock and roll.....I loved it and played it over and over.....still love it...the Dorsey Brothers were loved by so many....

Harlem Nocturne Les Brown (+playlist)

SOUNDS of the 1940's instrumentals .....and great bands...

Rod Stewart - These Foolish Things

Often when playing his albums and especially the American Song book, I have to stop...and just soak in the arrangements, the sounds , the voice, the sax....Rod is MAGIC
