  • Description

    A 60 tracker from this multi-talented entertainer who seemingly could lend his hand to anything, but most famously excelled as a singer, trumpeter and bandleader. We concentrate on performances from the late 50s when he really hit his stride. Sam Butera and Keely Smith are in attendance on many of these tracks.
