Description
Few instrumental recordings have achieved the timeless status of Sleep Walk.
Released in 1959, Santo & Johnny’s signature hit became an international sensation and remains one of the most recognizable instrumental recordings ever made. Built around Santo Farina’s haunting steel guitar melody, the song captured a dreamlike atmosphere that continues to resonate with listeners more than six decades later.
The duo’s debut album expands on that signature sound with a collection of melodic instrumentals blending steel guitar, rock and roll, pop, and easy listening influences. Warm, romantic, and unmistakably mid-century, these recordings showcase why Santo & Johnny became one of the most beloved instrumental acts of their era.
Centered around one of the defining instrumental recordings of the 1950s, Sleep Walk remains an essential addition to any collection of vintage guitar music.
