Dean Martin Sings (1953) |
Swingin' Down Yonder (1955) |
Dean Martin Sings is the first long-play 10-inch album recorded by Dean Martin for Capitol Records during two sessions recorded on the evening of November 20, 1952. The first session was recorded between 5 and 8 pm and produced five songs featuring string arrangements. "There's My Lover" was recorded but not released. After a ninety minute break, Dean was joined by a brass arrangement to record the remaining four songs. Seven of the eight songs on this album appeared in the Martin & Lewis film, The Stooge. Two years later, the songs from this 10-inch album would be combined with four newly popular songs recorded between 1951 and 1953 to create a full-length 12-inch album. The 2005 Collectors' Choice reissue added four bonus songs recorded between 1949 and 1953 and was released with alternate cover artwork.
