Vaughn Monroe And His Orchestra - Oh Promise Me Because

Review by Tachapon Mulmanee

Vaughn Monroe And His Orchestra's album, Oh Promise Me Because, is a true gem of its era. Released in 1949, the album features a collection of 12 tracks that showcase the band's impeccable musicianship and Monroe's smooth vocals.

The album opens with the title track, "Oh Promise Me Because," which is a beautiful ballad that sets the tone for the rest of the album. Monroe's voice is perfectly suited for these romantic tunes, and he delivers each song with a sense of sincerity and emotion that is hard to come by in today's music.

Other standout tracks on the album include "There, I've Said It Again," "Ballerina," and "Riders in the Sky." The band's arrangements are tight and polished, and the musicianship is top-notch. It's easy to see why Monroe was such a popular bandleader during his time.

Summary by Tachapon Mulmanee

Oh Promise Me Because is a must-have for fans of classic big band music. Monroe and his orchestra are at the top of their game on this album, and the songs are timeless classics that are sure to stand the test of time. Highly recommended.
