Perry como i had the craziest dream we get letters 49


We Get Letters was Perry Como's Second RCA Victor 12" long-play album. The LP's concept is an album of requests from Como's television show, but forgoing the usual big-band sound of Mitchell Ayres' Orchestra and the Ray Charles Singers for a small group known as "Como's little Combo", with soft, breezy jazz arrangements. The album was recorded between June 1956 and February 1957.

Contents

As with his previous album, So Smooth, Como eschewed the kind of novelties he was recording for singles release in favor of LP collections devoted to well-known pop standards dating back to the 1920s.
