From Billboard - December 6, 1960: This album, Volume III in the best selling "Persuasive Percussion" series, looks like another winner. Once again Enoch Light has turned out a bright, breezy, tasteful and musical percussion set, featuring The Command All Stars, which shows off clean, and well-nigh perfect recording. The tunes include "Moments To Remember," " All The Way," "One For My Baby" and "Kashmiri Song." The arrangements are both spectacular and at the same time delightfully subtle. Fine wax.

  1. This is just wonderful! My Dad had this record. I love the bongos. Now I'll be looking for copies of these Persuasive Percussion records. Thanks for enabling me :-)
