Steel Guitar by Moonlight

~ Release by Various Artists (see all versions of this release, 1 available)

Annotation

Dance cheek-to-cheek while reminiscing to the sounds of falling love. STEEL GUITAR BY MOONLIGHT gives a special twist to classic love songs like Moon River and Love Me Tender. These renditions are all-instrumental versions of the renowned songs, featuring the nostalgic warmth of the steel guitar and accented by the tender plucking of the mandolin, the sweet notes of the piano and the romance of the violin. Whether by candlelight or by moonlight, these songs will warm any heart.
