Indulge yourself for 76 minutes in a seamlessly flowing stereo experience comparable to a feature-length concert program of the best the ’50s has to offer. For the first time appreciate all the pleasurable nuances of great arrangements and vocal performances made possible only by TWO channels and Hit Parade’s trademark masterful sound equalization. All-time classics like Perry Como’s "Round And Round" and "Hot Diggity (Dog Ziggity Boom)," Jimmie Rodgers’ "Honeycomb," "Kisses Sweeter Than Wine," and "Secretly," and Harry Belafonte’s "Banana Boat (Day-O)" and "Mama Look A Boo-Boo." "When You Wish Upon A Star," Cliff Edward’s timeless Disney theme, could be the theme of the entire compilation, because it’s a wish come true that we can finally hear that classic and others, like The Diamonds’ "The Stroll," Elvis’ "Teddy Bear," The McGuire Sisters’ "Sugartime," and The Kingston Trio’s "Tom Dooley," in stereo for the first time after over 60 years! Superbly mastered, the 29 iconic hits of this great era will never sound better. Includes 25 stereo debuts (11 #1 hits among them)! Hit Parade.
