Vaughn Monroe - Essential Collection - 3 CD (320)

Also released as Essential Gold.

Vaughn Monroe, more affectionately known as Old Leather Tonsils and The Voice with Hairs on Its Chest, was a major performer though the 40s with a string of hits including There I Go in 1940 and My Devotion, When the Lights Go On Again, and Lets Get Lost during the next couple of years. He followed with There, Ive Said It Again and Let it Snow! Let it Snow! Let it Snow! in 1945, Ballerina, in 1947 and most famously, Riders in the Sky in 1949. In the 1950s, Monroe tried to move into the singing cowboy genre but his rich baritone was a poor match for the fruity-friendly-good-guy role. Although he continued to perform into the early 70s he never hit the charts again.

In the 40s and 50s, it was said that a recording artist knew that hed made the big time when Spike Jones and his City Slickers murdered (parodied) one of his songs. Jones effectively murdered Monroes Riders in the Sky in 1949, and Ive included the track in this torrent.
