Monday Nights - Steve Allen

Monday Nights
Steve Allen
Signature SM1021
A Product of Hanover-Signature Record Corporation
1960

From the back cover: Here's an album made, frankly, to celebrate the move of the Steve Allen Show to Monday Night!

It was also produced, of course, with the idea of providing a package of mighty pleasant music, but that goes without saying. In any event the twelve selections in this collection add up to a typically pleasant session with the Allen piano and orchestra and that's good news any night of the week.

As his fans know by now, Steve has the Plymouth people to thank for making the move out of the Sunday TV scramble possible and for that all TV-lovers as well as music-lovers can certainly be thankful. But whether the listener drives a Plymouth or roller-skates to work he'll certainly agree that this pretty package of musical evergreens satisfies those who like good music for its own sake as well as those who are always saying to Steve "We like the comedy on your show but you don't play the piano often enough!"

So whether you'r listening to these recordings while relaxing in your music room, dancing by the light of your neighborhood juke-box, or driving along in your new record-playing Plymouth, lotsaluck, as Steve says, and happy listening. We guarantee it.

  2. I had the great pleasure of seeing Steve Allen live in 1971. He was with Jayne Meadows, and Terri Gibbs and his band. Phenomenal!
