Swingin Safari / Wonderland By Night

This edition presents two classic Bert Kaempfert albums from his Polydor period: A Swingin Safari and Wonderland by Night. A Swingin Safari was first issued in the United States under the title That Happy Feeling (with a different cover) and climbed to Number 14 in the charts that same year. The latter album contains Kaempferts first hit, Wonderland by Night that was a Billboard number one for three weeks, starting January 9, 1961. All of this material showcases the eclecticism and sensual orchestral effects that were Kaempferts remarkable trademarks.
