Some of the songs which were well-known in prior times were revived by Mitch Miller and his Sing-Along singers in the 1950's. It was a terrific way to keep alive a musical heritage.
And a couple of these songs can only be appreciated with a YouTube Video. See "Dream a Little Dream of Me" by Mama Cass and "Billy the Kid" by Ry Cooder.
