De Castros

The De Castros… Music arranged and conducted by Billy May on Capitol.

Peggy, Cherie and Babette DeCastro. (When Babette retired in 1958, a cousin Olgita DeCastro Marino replaced her.) They had a style something like the Andrew Sisters but with a Latin flavor.

The biggest hit for the group was “Teach Me Tonight” from 1954.

Olive the nightlife

img_3671.JPG

Graham Forbes and the Trio “The Martini Set”.   1955.

Unlikely album for Sam Phillips to release.   An album of pop standards from the big band era such as “From this moment on”, “The lady is a tramp”, “Autumn in New York”, etc.   The reason this is so collectible is it came from Sam Phillips’ Sun Studios in Memphis.   Very few printed at the time of release.
