"I have many of these greatest hits on lps and waited impatiently for a CD release. Because Billy Vaughn had big hits in Latin America, South America, Africa, Japan, Hong Kong, Australia, Sweden, Germany and the US among other countries, it is definitely a feat to include just 50 of his most popular on a 2 CD collection. This collection was originally aimed at the German market. Yes, there are some HITS missing including US and German hits but those are available on other CD collections. Some of the tracks are in mono but that is because they either were not recorded in stereo (Sail Along Silvry Moon, Melody of Love, Raunchy, etc.) or a stereo master is not available. The greatest thing about his collection is that many of the cuts were previously available only on 45 rpm singles.This is the best introduction to the most successful studio orchestra of the rock n roll era."

"Between 1955 and 1970, Billy Vaughn had 28 singles and 36 albums in the Us Chart alone. In Germany he had a very impressive string of 19 top hits until the mid-1960's. A big two cd offer a good music string and other tunes, "Sukiyaki", "Happy Comboy","Berlin Melody","Come September"...Is a good buy..."

Thanks again, Billy

"As a child of 12, I first heard Billy Vaughn's music, and I collected many of the LP's he had out then. I was so facinated by the man and his music that I wrote him a letter in care of, I think, DOT records at the time. And guess what he did? He wrote me back a wonderful letter!!!!!!!!!!! I still have that wonderful letter from him after all these years!!!!!!! Thanks again, Billy!!!!!!!!!!!!"
