About The Record:
The Songs You Love to Remember, featured the Mills Brothers at their melodic best, singing 20 of their big hits on two 12" L.P. stereo records. The first track, Glow Worm, peaked at No. 2 on the Pop Music Charts. Other singles included were Sweet Leilani, So Rare, Any Time, Solitude, and many more. The Mills Brothers, sometimes billed the Four Mills Brothers, and originally known as the Four Kings of Harmony, were a jazz and traditional pop vocal quartet who made more than 2,000 recordings that sold more than 50 million copies and garnered at least three dozen gold records. They were the first African-American artists to have their own show on national network radio (on CBS in 1930) and were the first to have a No. 1 hit on the Billboard singles chart, with Paper Doll in 1943.
