Chill Out with The Platters

Let’s try something a little different for “Mellow Sunday”. Instead of playing selections from various artists, I’m going with a 40-minute medley from one of the greatest vocal groups of the 50s and 60s.
The Platters – led by the smooth voice of the incomparable Tony Williams – were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1990, and after listening to these classic songs, you’ll understand why … but you may also be wondering why they weren’t included in the original class of 1986.

      Your thanks are appreciated but not necessary. As long as I know you enjoyed it, that is thanks enough for me. 🙂

      Thanks, Wendyl. 🙂
      Relaxation was the goal so it’s nice to know it was successful … even if it isn’t quite Twilight Time 😉

    Listening on Monday, again. I don’t think the Platters ever made a bad recording. Thanks, Ray, You’ve Got the Magic Touch.
