Artist Biography
Billy Vaughn was one of the most popular orchestra leaders and pop music arrangers of the 1950s and early '60s. In fact, he had more pop hits than any other orchestra leader during the rock & roll era. Vaughn was also the musical director for many of the hitmakers on Dot Records, including Pat Boone, the Fontane Sisters, and Gale Storm. As a pop music arranger, he was most distinctive for his clean, inoffensive, mainstream adaptations of rock & roll and R&B hits. Vaughn was also a recording artist, and he cut a number of albums of easy listening instrumental music that were very popular throughout the '60s. After falling off the charts and slowing his output during the '70s, he quietly retired in the early '80s.
