PERRY COMO ON COLIN HOLMES EASY LISTENING SHOW SEPTEMBER 17TH 2019.


JUKEBOX BABY / THE BEST OF PERRY COMO...BEAR FAMILY RECORDS. SONY.

Tracks played....
Magic moments / catch a falling star / Papa loves mambo / Love makes the world go round.
It's impossible / Hot Diggity / Don't let the stars get in your eyes / Tomboy / Moon talk.
And I love you so / Caterina/ Delaware..

The Bear Family Records holds the best choice of top commercial Como with good clarity
recordings. Although this programme contained many of the novelty hits rather than the
many Ballads that Como took to million sales...I thought an evening of ballads would be a
little too much to take but will include them in other programming. Clear decisive crooning
with the humour trickling through. Perry must have raised his eyebrows at many of the
choices RCA produced for him to record until ' It's impossible' and then he was back
high in the charts all over the world.  *********.
