Having joined the BBC after serving in WWII, working as musical director for Henry Hall and Geraldo, he began recording under his own name in 1951 before the dawn of the vinyl LP era. This 57-track 2-CD collection comprises selected A\u0026amp;B sides of his singles on the Parlophone, Decca and London labels from this era as Frank Chacksfield \u0026amp; His Orchestra and as Frank Chacksfield's Tunesmiths, and it includes at least one side of just about all his releases from these years. It features all his UK and US chart entries, including the No. 2 hits \"Terry's Theme From Limelight\" and \"Ebb Tide\", and the Top 20 hits \"Little Red Monkey\" and \"In Old Lisbon\", along with \"Donkey Cart\" and \"On The Beach\". His style of music was hugely popular with the British public for many years and his fame spread across the Atlantic as well. This easy-on-the-ear collection is an enjoyable showcase for a particular and fondly-remembered strand of British popular music.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLittle Red Monkey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoundabouts and Swings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTerry's Theme from Limelight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLimelight 'Incidental Music from the Film (Ballet Introduction, Reunion, the Waltz)'\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEbb Tide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWaltzing Bugle Boy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Girl Called Linda\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGolden Violins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGolden Tango\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDancing Princess\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSong of Canterbury\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Pied Piper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlirtation Waltz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrelude to a Memory\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMisty Valley\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack Velvet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePiper in the Heather\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFiddlers' Boogie\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePicnic for Strings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSur Le Pave de Paris (Pavements of Paris)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLonely Nightingale\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlue Mirage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLady from Luxembourg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMy Barcarolle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Kid for Two Farthings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSong of the Trees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLove Is a Many Splendoured Thing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Shifting, Whispering Sands\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCockleshell Heroes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMademoiselle de Paris\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn Old Lisbon (Lisboa Antigua)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMemories of You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Donkey Cart\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Banks of the Seine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFanagalo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoft Summer Breeze\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYour Love Is My Love\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCatalan Sunshine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVoyage of the Mayflower\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSahara\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKatsumi Theme\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRodeo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLuxembourg Waltz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLove By Starlight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTake a Giant Step\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOn the Beach\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLove Is Like a Violin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAngelique\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCaroline\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Theme from the Dark at the Top of the Stairs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMadeleine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTheme from \"King of Kings\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTheme from \"Francis of Assisi\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFace to Face\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Sky at Night (At the Castle Gate Op. 46)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoman Tango\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 824046353520\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Acrobat\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12.6.24\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52276951777580,"sku":"824046353520","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0863\/2257\/7708\/files\/4381276-3319399.jpg?v=1762402424","url":"https:\/\/joseyrecords.com\/es\/products\/frank-chacksfield-limelight-the-singles-collection-1953-62-cd","provider":"Josey Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
