13. SANDMAN

I am going back to "Big Bands" in the "Group' Section. I realize this is considered a "Sweet Band", but Sammy Kaye had more hits
than any other band from 1943-1955 in the USA (Glenn Miller had the most hits from 1938-1943). So let's name the song hits by Sammy Kaye & His Orchestra............

1. HARBOR LIGHTS

5. IT ISN'T FAIR (with Don Cornell on vocal)

I discovered that Sammy Kaye only had 2-3 hits on the U.K. charts, so I'll finish this thread by Thursday if we don't get more entries.

Aye Henry, even Lena & Harry have let you down. I guess the rest of us are all too young to remember the big band era!!! :lol:

I wasn't around during the big band era, but I explored them and have many recordings. I'm not a fan of the sweet bands as I don't think their music has stood the test of time like Glenn Miller, Artie Shaw, Benny Goodman, Les Brown, or even Larry Clinton.
