About The Record:

It's cheese, but it's well-made cheese. Love Is Blue is the standout track here and hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1968. The arrangements are well-done and the music is well-recorded. The completed album included instrumentals of hits such as the Beatles' Penny Lane, Herman's Hermits' There's a Kind of Hush, Frank and Nancy Sinatra's Somethin' Stupid and Sandie Shaw's 1967 Eurovision song contest winner Puppet on a String.
