  1. I have his LP "Million Sellers" and and love his sound. I looked for more material, and there's nothing to quite match it.
    This Bolero Rock from 1956 sounds much like "Big Guitar" from 1958, so they must have got the idea from Costa here. Listening to Strolling Strings, there are no strings in it (?), though it is a stroll beat.
    A lot of his music is selling on the web now, some good quality and some quite amateurish.
