Jackie Wilson - By the Light of the Silvery Moon (1957)

B-side of "Reet Petite", released as a single in September 1957. This song was first published in 1909 and soon became a standard. In 1910, it was a #1 hit for Billy Murray and the Haydn Quartet, #2 for Ada Jones and #2 for the Peerless Quartet. Original Billboard review: "The great standard proves a very attractive side as done here. Wilson's vocal is relaxed. He's backed by chorus and neat arrangement by Jacobs. Rated 72 out of 100." Orchestra directed by Dick Jacobs. Written by Gus Edwards and Edward Madden.
