of time. Premiered by People.com, “Sentimental Journey”

Orchestra. The Glenn Miller Orchestra: 80th Anniversary Of

"I am honored and excited to be invited to sing "Sentimental
Journey" with The Glenn Miller Orchestra," smiles Crystal Gayle.
"I am a longtime fan of Glenn Miller and the big band era."


"We are excited and pleased to present alongside Hindsight
Records our new recording celebrating the 80th Anniversary of
Glenn Miller’s Army Air Force Band," shares Charles De Stefano,
CEO of Glenn Miller Productions, Inc. "We are equally thrilled to
have the wonderful Crystal Gayle join the Glenn Miller Orchestra
on our recording of the great classic “Sentimental Journey.” We
hope Glenn Miller Orchestra fans and Crystal’s fans around the
world enjoy this new dynamic recording."


Between 1939 and 1942, Glenn Miller led The Glenn Miller
Orchestra, which became one of the most recognized names globally
during the “Swing” era. Boasting an unmatched series of
chart-topping records, The Glenn Miller Orchestra surpassed the
sales of Benny Goodman, Artie Shaw, Duke Ellington, Count Basie,
Jimmie Lunceford, Tommy Dorsey, and Harry James combined.
Throughout three and a half years, Miller produced 16
chart-toppers and 72 top-ten hits, including a remarkable 31 in
1940 alone and earning the first-ever gold record for
“Chattanooga Choo Choo.” Miller's music not only defined the era
of World War II but has endured as a timeless soundtrack, with
bands carrying his legacy performing to enthusiastic crowds over
the 80 years since his passing. Today, under the direction of
Erik Stabnau, the current Glenn Miller Orchestra maintains a
rigorous schedule, standing as one of the few full-time big bands
still thriving in the contemporary music scene.


"Crystal Gayle and The Glenn Miller Orchestra are a natural
together on "Sentimental Journey" - a trip back in time to
revisit the sounds of the 1940s and the perfect introduction to
The Glenn Miller Orchestra: 80th Anniversary Of The Army Air
Force Band." - Erik Stabnau - Music Director for The Glenn Miller
Orchestra
