Johnny Kay

1950's and 1960's singer. He recorded many Christmas, Hymn and Italian albums. One of the most exciting new voices to come to the fore is the voice of Johnny Kay. His exquisite, melodic tone, similar in the many respects to another one of America's most beloved and admired singers, is an experience in listening. You'll recognize this similarity once you've heard a few songs from this album. You may prefer Johnny Kay as he sings of Italy and Italians; of their sensuous, romantic nature; if their love and appreciation for beauty and the arts; of their sheer delight in music and song. From the very moment you begin to hear these beautiful melodies as sung by Johnny Kay and played by Al Goodman and his orchestra you respond enthralled and enraptured. You will assume a buoyancy of spirit that comes usually from sipping good Italian wine. Before long, you feel yourself transplanted to Italy; perhaps at a gay street fair in romantic Rome; gliding gently in a Gondola on the waterways in Venice, or partaking of the old world beauty in the sun-swept Bay of Naples. When the music is over and you awaken to the stark reality of life you will say to yourself, "How beautiful! I must enjoy this album again soon!" Johnny Kay, although comparatively new has many recordings to his credit, already. Besides several guest appearances on various TV shows he has been featured on many occasions on the Jack Paar Show. He is a voice to go out of your way to hear. Look for Johnny Kay's other albums - Hymns and Como Esta from Johnny Kay..... From the back cover of Parade Records, Johnny Kay Sings In Italian
