This 45 RPM Extended Play compilation features four selections from Perry's 1959 LP "COMO SWINGS" released in France. Recordings during this period were often released in several formats, the short-lived 10" LP was being replaced by the larger 12" format record but there still existed a large market for 78s, 45s and the 45 Extended Play album and this would continue to approximately 1960.

All tracks in this compilation were monaural.
