1953 HITS ARCHIVE: In The Mission Of St. Augustine - Sammy Kaye (Jeffrey Clay & choir, vocal)

In The Mission Of St. Augustine (Chiarelli) Swing & Sway with Sammy Kaye, vocal by Jeffrey Clay & The Kaye Choir Following well over a decade of hit records, this top-15 single from autumn ’53 was the final charted track for Kaye’s traditional ‘Swing and Sway’ sweet-band style. He did return to the top-40 in 1964 with a gently swinging big-band arrangement of “Charade” and continued to tour with his band for many more years to come.
