Musician / Songwriter of Jazz, Pop and Soundtrack
Tony Burrello was an American jazz pianist and songwriter, perhaps best known for the 1953 novelty record "There's a New Sound", written with Tom Murray.Burrello and Murray started writing novelty songs after they were unsuccessful in having their more serious-minded songs recorded by prominent musicians. They noted the success of music that was seemingly intentionally bad, after hearing a disc jockey play a version of "Yes Sir, That's My Baby" sung in Japanese and featuring a geisha orchestra. According to Murray, the disc jockey said that the record was one of the top hits but also "one of the most horrible records he had ever heard".
