This was a big hit instrumental for Bert Kaempfert, and what Herb would do is just play the Kaempfert record and add his own lyrics, which are amazing. For anyone who grew up listening to HOA, this is THE definitive version of this recording.
@@davidbross6942 Yes, Herb wrote the lyrics and, as far as I know, is the only person who has ever sung this in public. Bert Kaempfert wrote the original music, and both his and all other known recordings are instrumentals.
I just loved him! Hello again, HOA
Thanks for putting this out! I remember listening to this on many mornings as a boy growing up on Long Island! Great memories😊
I also listened to him growing up. And I lived in New Jersey a few miles from the Delaware River. That station had quite a reach.
1962 AT THE HEIGHT OF HIS POWERS!!
