Produced by Andy Wiswell

Arranged and Conducted by Nick Perito

Choral Director: Ray Charles and the Ray Charles Singers.

Recorded in RCA Victor's Studio A, New York City

Recording Engineer: Bob Simpson

 

Recorded  December 30th, 1965    ~   Matrix No. SPA1 6228 Take 7    

~ original recording not released on vinyl

 

 

Notes: ~ A song recorded during the sessions for Perry's 1966 album "Lightly Latin" from which

there were four songs recorded that weren't released within the album. One song,

"Happiness Comes, Happiness Goes"  appears to have been a warm-up song for the

sessions ( it was recorded again and later released in 1969 ) but there are three Latin

lavoured songs, including this one, which will be of great interest to those who prize

this unique album from Perry's repertoire. These are among the first recordings with

Nick Perito replacing Mitchell Ayres as arranger, conductor, and they also mark Perry's

return to the more conventional recording environment of New York.
