 What a surprise to come across this. Bob Thompson arranger. 


 

Debra Paget  (born Debralee Griffin; August 19, 1933) famous in the group for the snake dance is on here with a exotica-ish ballad.

Back in my college radio days doing Martinis with Mancini I was contacted by Bob Thompson's son. He sent me a compilation album www.bobthompsonmusic.com is still active and run by the family.  I lost the CDR? but have a digital copy.

 



The family might not be happy I posted this link to a rip of  "The Top Hollywood Stars Sing"
