"Dance Hall Days" is a largely instrumental program of vintage dances including marches, two steps, foxtrots, tangos and rumbas. This is perfect for your dance party of just for easy listening. Ian Whitcomb (accordion, piano, ukulele and vocals) is accompanied by his Bungalow Boys, an ensemble ranging from a quintet to a full-blown orchestra. Several of the tracks are conducted by David Raksin, the famous composer for such movies as "Laura" and "The Bad and the Beautiful".
