Album notes by Ernie Altschuler.

 

 

This album records a truly memorable event, for

Perry Como's appearance at the International

Hotel in Las Vegas is his first live

performance on any stage other than TV in

over twenty-five years. This album

marks another first for Mr. C. in that it

is the first time throughout his long

singing career that he has been

recorded live. The result is an

album in which Perry Como's vocal

skill as well as his distinctive

warmth and ease come through as

never before.
