 PATIENCE & PRUDENCE, aged just fourteen and eleven respectively, were the daughters of Mark McIntyre, the noted pianist, bandleader, arranger and composer, and Frank Sinatra’s former West Coast accompanist. They exploded onto the US charts in 1956 with their very first record, the million-selling ‘Tonight You Belong To Me’, a cutesy revival of Gene Austin’s 1927 hit. The following year they registered one further biggie, a cover of ‘Gonna Get Along Without Ya Now’, another much-travelled song which had first charted for Teresa Brewer in 1952. In a short recording career they cut just eleven singles; but by the time they were in their late teens, neither girl wanted to be a Pop singer. This compilation features what is believed to be their entire recorded legacy, including the original demos of their first single; plus, by way of an additional ‘bonus track’, the audio of their appearance on “The Perry Como Show” in August 1956.
