Various Artists - `50s Love Songs [Box Set]

Artist:

Various Artists

Description:

Liner Note Author: Bill Dahl.
Pop music of the 1950s was about more than the birth of rock & roll, as exemplified by this three-disc set teeming with romantic crooners. From harmony groups like the Mills Brothers and the Andrews Sisters to belters like Frankie Laine and cool, jazz-tinged stylists such as Nat "King" Cole and Eartha Kitt, `50s LOVE SONGS overflows with melodic exclamations of passion, be they fervid (Peggy Lee`s "Lover") or forlorn (Judy Garland`s "The Man That Got Away").
