The Griff Williams Orchestra
Mercury Records MG 20608
1961
From the back cover: For more than a generation, Griff Williams brought his personality and sound to the ballrooms, supper clubs and proms of the nation. Coast-to-coast, his "tenor lead" band performed an average of 320 dates each year. He played them all (2800 different locations by his own estimate) and his audience measured in the multi-millions. – Lou Sidran
Also from the back cover (copy from the photo block): Bob Kirk joined the Griff Williams band in 1939 as a vocalist, saxophonist and manager and remained in these capacities until 1953 when Griff retired from the music business to accept a position with the Haywood Publishing Company. At this time Griff turned over the active leadership of the orchestra to Bob (pictured).
