A Little Christmas Music - Santa Clause is on his Way(Sammy Kaye and his Orchestra)
Sammy Kaye was born Sammy Zarnocay, Jr. in Lakewood Ohio on March 13, 1910. Aside
from the Christmas tune, Santa Clause is on
His Way featured as my daily yuletide offering, Mr. Kaye has another December connection. Shortly after the December 7, 1941 attack on Pearl
Harbor, Sammy wrote the music for the tune Remember
Pearl Harbor. Surely it’s just one of many patriotic, support the military,
and the boys over there songs that came out of the war era, but one worth
mentioning.
