Billy Vaughn - Sail Alone Silv'ry Moon/Blue Hawaii

As the musical director at Dot Records, Billy Vaughn had a hand in arranging and producing a lot of hit records. But it was on his solo work that his genius really shines; through brilliant instrumentation and choice of repertoire, the man had a unique knack for setting a hit-making hook in the heart of '50s America even as rock 'n' roll took over. We've fished six of his classic Dot albums out of the vaults for these three twofers and added new liner notes; they present instrumental pop at it's best, and they're all Collectors' Choice Music exclusives! (END INTRO) Billy's first charting album (#5) from 1958 teamed with his tropically flavored #7 album from 1959 - 26 tracks of orchestral perfection! Billy's hit, twin-sax version of Bill Justis' 'Raunchy' highlights 'Sail Along', followed by 'Sail Along Silv'ry Moon'; 'Sunrise Serenade'; 'Sweet Georgia Brown'; 'Sentimental Journey'; 'Until Tomorrow'; 'Jealous'; 'Twilight Time'; 'Sleepy Time Gal'; 'I'm Getting Sentimental over You'; 'Moon over Miami', and 'Tumbling Tumbleweeds'. 'Hawaiian War Chant' and the title track were hits on Blue Hawaii, which also features 'Hawaiian Paradise'; 'Little Brown Gal'; 'My Isle of Golden Dreams'; 'Sweet Leilani'; 'Cocunut Grove'; 'Trade Winds'; 'Beyond the Reef'; 'My Little Grass Shack'; 'Song of the Islands'; 'Hawaiian Sunset', and 'Aloha Oe'.
