CLIFF AT MOVIES
The "Theme from A Summer Place" is a song with lyrics by Mack Discant and music by Max Steiner, written for the 1959 movie A Summer Place, which starred Sandra Dee and Troy Donahue. It is one of the most well known examples of beautiful music.This was the first movie theme to win a Grammy Award for Record of the Year (1961). It still stands as the longest-running #1 instrumental hit in the US, running for 9 weeks. It is also the very first instrumental recording to win Record of the Year.

    It is one of the great disappointments of my life that I and millions of other Americans were deprived of the talents of Sir Cliff in the 60's. His rendition of "A Summer Place" theme is truly exceptional. And, "The Event" ... wow. Thanks Mrs. Peet. And, thank you, Sir Cliff, for all the music.

    Yes, the theme from "A summer place" will remain a perennial favorite. The film starred heart-throbs of the late 50's, early 60's Troy Donahue and Sandra Dee. Besides, the instrumental version by Percy Faith and His Orchestra, the best vocal version was recorded by the golden-voiced Andy Williams. Mr. Williams was hailed as the National Treasure by an American prime minister. Yes, Cliff Richard too was good. The instrumental version still gives me goose-bumps!!!

    I know that this theme music titled "A summer place" is extremely enchanting. I guess that Sir Cliff Richard also loved this marvelous song very strongly. So, practically his singing is awfully nice. Incidentally, the hero and hiroine were Troy Donahue and Sandra Dee. Of course, this movie "A summer place" became ultra big hit in Japan at around 1960. And we are told that about ten million Japanese young ones had watched that movie.
