Description

Together Again! captures Billy O’Connor and his reunited Toronto‑based ensemble in a 1964 studio session recorded at Bay Studios. O’Connor, a long‑established figure in Canadian variety entertainment, blends Irish traditional medleys, novelty tunes, and light lounge‑style arrangements, supported by piano, accordion, bass, and rhythm section.

The album reflects the atmosphere of O’Connor’s long‑running club performances, with medleys stitched together in a revue‑style format. Arc Sound Ltd. issued the LP exclusively in Canada, consistent with the label’s focus on domestic artists, regional performers, and variety‑show‑style recordings throughout the 1960s.

This release stands as a document of mid‑century Canadian entertainment culture, capturing the blend of Irish repertoire, vaudeville humour, and supper‑club musicianship that defined O’Connor’s career.
