My mother LOVES the Ames Brothers.
I bought her an old album when I was in college (had the used LP stores there) which apparently did not have all the songs as ORIGINALLY recorded, but they were in the ‘50s and the “Sentimental Me” version was so big-band fantastic!
I ended up warping that record beautifully. Left it for a long time in our little stereo which was in the sun room. Finally got to it and the record completely waved all around some 3 inches each way! Too bad, loved the sound.
Sad about what happened to the LP. The Ames brothers were excellent. Ed Ames played the role of “Mango” with Fess Parker in the TV series “Daniel Boone.” Ed Ames is still alive. Born in Malden, Mass. in 1927. As for other singers, I enjoyed Tennessee Ernie Ford, and Jimmy Rodgers too.
