The 4 Coins had the hit on Shangrila. They sounded something like the Four Aces. Jerry liked the 4 Aces and the 4 Lads.
The Four Freshmen sang in a cloud way above all the rest.
The Freshmen dared to use their voices like a horn section.
Doing away with vibrato and traditional straight singing.
Jerry always said "The Four Freshmen have an ethereal sound."
His Freshmen record is "How Can I tell Her" by the "FF" (youtube) - From the movie Lucy Gallant with Jane Wyman & Charlton Heston. The Freshmen
sing How Can I tell her behind the Wyman & Heston ballroom dance scene. Shangrila also recorded by Vic Damone, Four Aces, the Lettermen, Hollywood Jerry, Nelson Riddle, and Vic dana.
