Sing to Me Mr. C was Perry Como's Eighth RCA Victor 12" long-play album.[2][3]

Sing To Me Mr. C was recorded in the same manner as the medley segments on Perry Como's popular Wednesday night NBC-TV show, complete with performances of his opening and closing themes, plus six medleys of three full songs each. The total time of the album was nearly 43-minute running time, which was unusually long for a pop album of the era. Most Hugo & Luigi albums are known for being cohesive and well constructed and most critics agreed that the material was terrific, with the album featuring many popular standards.
