The Ames Brothers - The Man With The Banjo (1954)

Charted at #6 Billboard Pop in May 1954. Written by Robert Mellin and Fritz S. Reichel (also known as Crazy Otto). Original Billboard review: "The boys turn to an old-fashioned opus with this nostalgic effort about the man who used to strum the banjo years ago. It's a catchy tune, and the boys sing it warmly with fine support from a chorus and a banjo featured with the orchestra. This side, too, is potent and has a chance to make it. Rated 83 out of 100." With Hugo Winterhalter's Orchestra & Chorus. B-side is "Man, Man, is for the Woman Made".
