We All Scream For Ice Cream! [ORIGINAL RECORDINGS REMASTERED]

Fred Waring was recognised as one of the most outstanding and dynamic personalities in American show business and even if, as has sometimes been suggested, he made no mark in music history, he certainly knew what middle-America wanted. Millions tuned in to his radio and television shows to hear the lavish choral arrangements performed by the fabulous Glee Club, supported by a talented group of musicians known as The Pennsylvanians. His was the common man's approach, "we don't sing music", he told a New York Times reporter "we sing songs". His story actually starts in the 1920s, which is the period covered here, a joyous collection of superbly re-mastered 'happy' tracks with great vocals. A real evocation of the era before the depression struck America. 24 tracks playing over 72 minutes.
