The Night Is Young - Wanye King

The Night Is Young
Wayne King And His Orchestra
RCA Camden CAL 358
1956

Camden was RCA's budget label. Budget or not, Camden featured some very good cover art.

The classy photo on this monochromatic jacket is credited to Howard Graff.

The music doesn't reflect the cover image in my opinion and seems dated for a mid-50s release. The tracks, apparently, were collected together from various earlier recordings.

  1. Love the cover but without a track I can't comment on the dated-ness of the music.

  3. Sorry, no share. Many if not all of the tunes, if I remember correctly, can be found online for purchase.
