Review by Steve Allen

Stardust by Billy Ward and His Dominoes is an album that showcases the group's impeccable vocal harmonies and soulful sound. Released in 1957, the album features 12 tracks that range from upbeat, danceable tunes to slow, romantic ballads.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Stardust," a cover of the classic Hoagy Carmichael song. The group's rendition of the song is beautifully arranged and features lead vocalist Clyde McPhatter's smooth, emotive voice. Another notable track is "Tenderly," a slow ballad that showcases the group's ability to convey emotion through their vocal performances.

By the time I grew up, there was
billion a year in cargo
...moving through Idlewild Airport,
and we tried to steal every bit of it.
