A wisp of cigarette smoke in the soft lamplight, the tinkle of a glass, a hushed whisper ... and music for
lovers only. This is love's entrancing setting. For music, in a thousand ways, describes each glowing facet of
romance. In this album Jackie Gleason has chosen a group of love's most appealing
melodies ... tender ballads that have special significance for all of us. Here is tuneful, sentimental music for
your most relaxed listening moments.
Jackie Gleason first achieved national prominence as a television comedy star, but his
remarkable show business versatility extends well beyond the confines of comedy. He has proven himself a fine
dramatic actor as well, through his starring roles in serious TV dramas. And sweeping praise has greeted his
Broadway appearance in the highly successful Take Me Along.
He is, indeed, a man of numerous talents. And many people have come to know him best of all for his wonderful Capitol albums. In this album, his fine musical taste and feeling are clearly evidenced: in his choice of songs; in his selection of arrangers C. Dudley King, Jr., and Richard Jones, and outstanding trumpeter Bobby Hackett as soloist; in Gleason's own skillful conducting of this charming presentation of Music For Lovers Only.
