Kay Kyser's Greatest Hits - Capitol Records ST 1692

Stereo re-recordings of songs by former members of the Kay Kyser orchestra after he had retired from show business in 1950.


Recorded on August 25, 1961

Released in 1962.


This version is sometimes mistaken for the version heard in Fallout: New Vegas. Though several band members were present on both recordings, Julie Conway is missing and did not record on this album in 1962.

Coincidentally, this album also contains the version of "Praise the Lord and Pass the Ammunition!" heard in Fallout 76.


The stereo effect features a very hard panning of the instruments. The female vocal, clapping, backing vocals, and saxophones are on the left. The male vocal, jingling, percussion, trumpets, and trombones are on the right.


As for differences between the Capitol and Columbia versions, the phrasing of the first line “no wedding bells” is an easy indicator. The original 1942 Columbia version says the line smoothly while the 1962 Capitol Records version stops briefly at the word “no”.

As for credited personnel, Harry Babbitt does reprise his lead vocal role. Ish Kabibble (trumpet), Jack Martin, and Sully Mason (saxophones) are also present on both recordings serving double duty on instruments and vocals as needed.

Julie Conway is not present on the Capitol Records version, substituted by Trudy Erwin who however was present at the original May 21, 1942 recording session. Conway had left the band by January of 1944 to pursue her own radio show.

Michael Douglas, Ginny Simms, and Gloria Wood were not at the 1942 recording session, but had sung with the Kay Kyser orchestra on other sessions and likely provided the backing vocals on this Capitol Records session.

Kay Kyser himself is not present. While Stan Freberg did imitations of the “Ol’ Professor’s” voice for this record, he did not make an introduction for this track.
