Brings back many good memories of better times.
I am 80 now and still enjoy all the good music of the 40's and 50's.
Thanks to all who make this type of music available to us old folks.
I was a teenager when this music was playing on the radio and it made a vast impression on me. I can still remember every word to every one and Guy's inflection. Mitch Miller really made these records work, but his work with other artists has been criticized.
Another great hit for Mitch Miller and Guy Mitchell. Yes they don't make great music anymore. The late Steve Allen said "They've taken the beauty out of music". Sad!!
Thank you Cats for all the great songs you post. What memories they bring. I was 8 years old when I heard this on Martin Block's Make Believe Ballroom. on WNEW AM radio.
I was a toddler when Guy Mitchell was on the radio and must have absorbed his songs, as I was still singing them to myself 10 years later. He had a very distinctive and rich voice, and he made each song a story, especially for a little kid like me. And I love the Mitch Miller sound. Horn Belt Boogie?
I love the 1950s. My great grandpa loved his music and when he passed, my nana would play this all the time. She still does play it but now it's more me than anyone else
Down Memory lane we go again with Guy Michell a big favourite when I was in my teens. It's lovely to hear him again after all these years. Thanks for posting.
Lovely happy music from a past era, it's not the Great American song book but it helps define the fifties in the same way that Gershwin did the twenties n thirties, it always makes me happy and I sing along like I did then. Guy Mitchell has gone like so many of that era , I am 86 now and these songs are so vibrant still and bring happy memories.
