"I am proud to own the entire collection of Ray Conniff C.D's ever released! Get your dancing shoes to this one for 12 fabulous arrangements! Every one of them is great including Volare, Never on Sunday, and a favorite Chanson D'Amore! If you love the work of this talented musician then the Happy Beat is for you!!"
Ray Conniff still one of the best!

"If you are a Ray Conniff fan and enjoy good music take
the opportunity to get the CD re-issue of this early
60's album. The folks at Sony have continued to do an
excellent job at remastering and retaining the famous
audio quality that was always associated with his records,
and retaining his musical legacy.
This is a companion to such albums as "Memories are Made of
This" and "World of Hits", In this collection, Mr.Conniff used his "wordless chorus" and orchestra in arrangements of mostly
50's hits such as "Volare" "Cry" and the Kay Starr hit "Wheel
of Fortune". Kudos to Sony and other labels for realizing that
there are many of us who enjoy the great "easy listening"
artists of the past, and the music they gave us."
