• Track Listing

These 100 tracks take us from the time Mel & His Mel-Tones made their first splash on radio in the mid-’40s all the way to the arrival of the ’60s, by which time Mel was one of the most respected jazz singers on the planet. His early hits Day by Day; Careless Hands; Again; Blue Moon; The Four Winds and the Seven Seas; The Old Master Painter (with Peggy Lee), and Bewitched join his velvet-smooth versions of My Baby Just Cares for Me; But Beautiful; I Cover the Waterfront; Night and Day; Love Me or Leave Me; Blue Moon; I Hadn’t Anyone Till You; That Old Black Magic; Blue Skies; South of the Border; a live version of his self-penned holiday classic The Christmas Song, and more!
