Volume 190: Billy's Million Sellers

Here’s an artist dwelling in my father’s collection we haven’t heard from yet. We’ll be hearing selections from the first of three Billy Vaughn records he had.

This record isn't just filled with the pop hits Vaughn would arrange and record for orchestra to be played on those easy listening radio stations. These are standards. In fact, the hit recordings of these songs sold a lot of records.

So, get ready to hear 7 tunes that were recorded over 1,200 times combined over the years in Volume 190: Billy's Million Sellers.

More information about this album, see the Discogs webpage for it.
