"Banana Split For My Baby" is followed by "Another Banana Split, Please!", again themed around summer. Special songs from the period between 1938 and 1962, whether it's sunbathing, surfing, beach parties or cool drinks on a humid night, ice cream at the milk bar and of course don't forget love! The soundtrack to summer! Summer is party time That's what we had in mind when we put this CD together. It doesn't matter if the party takes place by the pool, on the beach, in the garden or by the lake. A boisterous summer party in the warmth of the sun or on a humid summer night is now musically supported. Music for dancing, dreaming and simply feeling good. Cool music for the hot season! Summer nostalgia Great listening pleasure is guaranteed, very rare titles alternate with nostalgic summer hits. Really summer hits are offered by Eddie Cochran with Summertime Blues and Jerry Keller with Here Comes Summer. Then there's Brian Hyland with two hits, Summer Job and of course the obligatory Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weenie Yellow Polkadot Bikini. There's also plenty of stuff for collectors! Rare titles from Bikini and Kittens, doo-wop numbers from Pearls, Chimes and Diamonds, beach rarities from Dave York and Gene Gray and of course the McGuire Sisters' title song Banana Split! Of course, the CD is complete with liner notes for each song and many illustrations in the 28-page booklet!
