Brooklyn-born
Art
Mooney
was
leader
of
one
of
Americas
most
popular
dance
bands
from
the
mid
1930s
up
until
the
1960s.
He
achieved
his
greatest
success
with
happy
sing-along
remakes
of
1920s
standards,
sometimes
with
the
addition
of
a
banjo,
and
scored
a
number
one
hit
in
1948
with
Im
Looking
Over
a
Four-leaf
Clover,
a
chart-topper
for
5
weeks
that
sold
over
a
million
copies.
Other
Top
Ten
hits
include
Baby
Face,
Bluebird
of
Happiness,
Again
and
Honey-babe.
The
unstoppable
Art
Mooney
occupied
the
best
selling
charts
for
most
of
1949
with
various
singles:
Beautiful
Eyes
two
months;
Again-
over
four
months;
Twenty-Four
Hours
Of
Sunshine
two
months
and
in
the
years
that
followed
the
band
continued
to
produce
major
hits.
Their
first
18
hits
have
been
incorporated
into
this
25
track
Sepia
collection
and
almost
all
are
appearing
on
CD
for
the
fist
time.
Included
too
is
the
bands
signature
tune
Sunset
to
Sunrise.
Art
Mooney
continued
to
reap
the
benefits
of
his
hit
status
by
continuing
to
lead
various
bands
in
the
sixties
and
seventies,
long
after
the
big
band
era
had
passed
its
peak.
He
toured
the
nation
with
a
nostalgia
package
show
The
American
Big
Band
Cavalcade
and
for
a
period
in
the
eighties
fronted
The
Guy
Lombardo
Orchestra.
