Eddie Calvert – The Man With The Golden Trumpet

• During the 1950s, EDDIE CALVERT, aka “The Man With The Golden Trumpet”, was one of the most popular entertainers in the UK, a huge star on the old Variety circuit, and a radio and television perennial.
• He also registered a stack of hit records and had a bona-fidé Gold Disc hanging up in the parlour.
• His first significant hit, ‘Oh, Mein Papa’, topped both the UK and US charts and he had further successes in the UK, including another chart-topper, ‘Cherry Pink And Apple Blossom White’.
• This compilation is drawn from his singles releases between 1951 and 1962 and presents his Greatest Hits, and more.
• Eddie Calvert compilations have been pretty thin on the ground over the years, and this set includes a number of sides that hadn’t previously appeared on CD, which makes it doubly welcome.
