Record Comments:  This record is one of the four seasons records, with music by Camarata.  The album was released in mono and stereo versions, with some cover variations.  In 2003, eight of the ten tracks (1-4 and 6-9) were released on the CD Soft And Sentimental by Camarata & His Orchestra.  Also on the CD are three tracks from Winter and eight from Summer.

All four records, Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter, were also released in an unnumbered box set, Music Of The Seasons that contains a montage of the cover artwork from each album.  All four records were issued in the WDL catalog series, in mono recordings in 1958.  In 1959, Spring and Winter were released in stereo with the catalog prefix changed from WDL to STER.

Some of the stereo versions include mono-cover artwork with a Stereophonic sticker placed over the Disneyland Records logo, while others have the Stereophonic artwork and STER catalog number printed within the paper artwork.  All mono versions will be on purple Disneyland labels, while the stereo versions will carry the stereo notation on a black Disneyland label.

The stereo version of the Spring record cover is slightly different than the mono versions.  The back cover with the correct and printed catalog number of STER-3032 is missing the leaf on the bottom center twig and gives credit to the artist's signature, Art Riley, in the bottom left corner.  The text across the bottom notes that the record is STEREOPHONIC and should only be played back on equipment that can play stereo records.

Subject Notes:  Salvador "Tutti" Camarata is best known for his work as a musical supervisor, arranger and conductor who joined Disney in 1956 to help establish the Disneyland Records company.  He was born in New Jersey on May 11, 1913 and passed away in Burbank on April 13, 2005.

Of his many accomplishments and successes, a stand-out credit of his includes creating the "echo" sound for recording artists such at Annette Funicello and others.  Often credited as Camarata and known to many at just "Tutti," he was named a Disney Legend in 2003.
