Paul Mauriat & His Orchestra spent 5 weeks at #1 on the US #Top40, the 1st recording by a French lead artist to top the chart. “L’amour est bleu” (“Love Is Blue”) is tied for second longest of any instrumental of the Hot 100 era… The longest? Percy Faith with 9 weeks! #PercyFaith #OneHitWondered

#DendensMusicDen. Day 146. Roll over, Beethoven. The Beatles is now officially classical music. Joking aside, hearing the familiar songs performed by The Percy Faith Strings on their The Beatles Album is refreshing and it sounds really good. #MusicSky #PhysicalMedia #Vinyl #TheBeatles #PercyFaith

This delightful song is from a movie soundtrack, but it will always be from a late night, 70s TV ad to me. Teens were slow dancing in a gym, but they may as well have been on Mars:

The Johnny Mathis album Wonderful in a rack that says Now Spinning. From behind peeks a poster for Reefer Madness.
I'm getting the day started with Johnny Mathis backed by Percy Faith's orchestra, and that's wonderful, just fuckin wonderful. I have a feeling this was Lawrence Welk's favorite album.
