About this album
Songs For Swingin' Sellers is a sharp comic set that shows Peter Sellers turning novelty and parody into polished entertainment. Issued in 1959, the album plays to his gift for character voices and musical imitation, moving between swing, big-band manners and affectionate send-ups of popular song. Rather than a straightforward comedy record, it works as a lively showcase for Sellers’ timing, vocal range and satirical edge, with arrangements that give the jokes real musical bite. Its mix of stage, screen and pop references helped establish Sellers as more than a film comic, but as a deft and influential satirist on record.
