  Amazon.com: Stranger on the Shore: The Best of Acker Bilk: Acker Bilk: Music
Acker Bilk (what a distinctive name he has!) composed and performs the title song "Stranger on the Shore" on this CD filled with familiar pop songs performed by Bilk's soothing clarinet in the foreground and the lovely strings orchestra in the background.
The melody of "Stranger on the Shore" is one of the most wistfully beautiful and haunting ever composed.
Although the songs are done well, "Stranger on the Shore" is not the song that was the number one song of the year in 1963.

Drawing from traditional, classical, and light orchestral sources, Bilk -- expertly accompanied by the Leon Young String Chorale -- is a master of the sweeping epic, and it doesn't matter whether he's tackling a standard as trite as "Deep Purple" or Brahms' Lullaby, or something as impossibly soul-stirring as "Greensleeves." Everything emerges a major statement.
"Stranger on the Shore" itself, meanwhile, is so deeply embedded in the musical consciousness that it seems incredible that it's an original Bilk/Young composition, one of just two on the album.
