Some of these are a stretch, but worth a listen...

  • Bell Sisters are great, especially Bermuda and The Dance Of Love
  • Mel Torme - Again
  • Xavier Cugat with Dinah Shore - Yours
  • Nelson Riddle - Love Tide (and other songs, for a lush orchestral sound)
  • Vaughn Monroe - They Were Doing the Mambo
  • Artie Shaw - Frenesi (or other versions if clarinet breaks the mood)
  • Kay Kyser with Harry Babbitt & Trudy Irwin - On a Slow Boat to China
  • Various versions of Sukiyaki (Kyu Sakamoto, Kong Ling are good)
  • Spike Jones - Hawaiian War Chant
