Million Seller Songs is a compilation album by American pop singer Andy Williams that was released in the fall of 1962 by Cadence Records.[4] This third album to compile the singer's material features some of the most successful songs Williams had recorded to date (albeit, in most cases, successful for another artist).
The collection made its first appearance on the Billboard Top LPs chart in the issue dated January 12, 1963, and remained there for 43 weeks, peaking at #54.[5] it also debuted on the Cashbox albums chart in the issue dated December 15, of that year, and remained on the chart for 16 weeks, peaking at number 24[6]
The album was issued on compact disc as one of two albums on one CD by Collectables Records on September 12, 2000, along with Williams's 1959 Cadence album, To You Sweetheart, Aloha.[7] Million Seller Songs was included in a box set entitled Classic Album Collection, Vol. 1, which contains 17 of his studio albums and three compilations and was released on June 26, 2001.[8]
