Like fellow Italo-American Frank Sinatra, Perry Como was a product of the Big Band era and also like Frank he managed to re-invent himself for the 1950s youth market in such a fashion that, during the height of the birth of R&R, there was Perry, again like Frank, putting out hit after hit after hit.

In fact, from his first Billboard Pop Top/Hot 100 singles hit in 1955 [Ko Ko Mo (I Love You So), which made it to # 2 in March, to his last in 1974 [Christmas Dream which peaked at # 92 in ... Read More

'Perry Como: Yesterday and Today ~ A celebration in song' is by far one of the best box set compilation efforts of Como material currently available (From the RCA/BMG Label)!

It's a tragedy that most people under forty don't even know who Perry Como is and few have ever been exposed to his music.

Perry modeled himself closely after Bing and the influence clearly shows. His voice wasn't as deep and his range wasn't as great, but his voice was more mellifluous and mellow, particularly as he aged.
