Gleason, Jackie
"Music For Lovers Only" is a romantic album that was released by Jackie Gleason in 1952. Gleason was an American comedian, actor, and musician known for his role as Ralph Kramden in the television show "The Honeymooners." He was also a talented musician who played the piano and composed music.
The idea for "Music For Lovers Only" came about when Gleason was asked to provide background music for a party. He decided to record a series of romantic melodies that would be perfect for slow dancing and other romantic moments. The album was recorded with a full orchestra, and Gleason's piano playing was featured prominently throughout.
The album was a huge success and became one of the best-selling romantic albums of all time. It spent 153 weeks on the Billboard charts and was eventually certified gold. Gleason went on to record several other albums in a similar vein, including "Romantic Jazz" and "Opiate D'Amour."
Today, "Music For Lovers Only" is considered a classic album that captures the spirit of the romantic era. Its lush orchestration and smooth piano playing continue to inspire musicians and listeners alike. Gleason's legacy as a multi-talented performer and musician lives on through his timeless recordings.
