Percy Faith (7 April 1908 – 9 February 1976) was a Canadian bandleader, orchestrator, composer, and conductor.
Take It on Faith
Percy Faith wrote loads of lush
Arrangements meant to calm the mood,
On albums full of tasteful gush,
But never vulgar, crass, or crude,
Helping folks survive the crush
When Cold War apprehensions brewed.
