Percy Faith - "The Theme From A Summer Place"


Here's a song you've probably heard a few hundred times, but have you ever seen original footage of it being performed live by an orchestra... conducted by it's original arranger Percy Faith? Well, you have now.

Note - at the time this clip was originally broadcast, Summer Place was at or near its record nine-week run as the Billboard number one song in America (a record that still stands for an instrumental track).
