Starlit Hour (Mitchell Parish-Peter DeRose) by Glenn Miller & his Orchestra, vocal by Ray Eberle.

The final (1940) edition of the “Earl Carroll’s Vanities” musical revue survived only 25 performances on Broadway. Though it boasted no major name stars, the show did feature this popular Mitchell Parish-Peter DeRose ballad that peaked at #2 on “Your Hit Parade.” Miller’s version remains the best-remembered.
