Jackie Gleason Plays Romantic Jazz
# Jackie Gleason Plays Romantic Jazz

Jackie Gleason Plays Romantic Jazz, also known as Romantic Jazz, is a studio album by television personality, Jackie Gleason. It was released in 1955 on Capitol Records (catalog no. W-568). Gleason conducted the orchestra.

Romantic Jazz debuted on the Billboard magazine pop album chart on November 12, 1955, peaked at No. 2, and remained on the chart for 12 weeks.

AllMusic gave the album a rating of four-and-a-half stars. Reviewer Greg Adams called it one of Gleason's "jazzier" efforts but concludes it "isn't quite mood music or jazz -- it falls somewhere in between, with the potential to appeal to the audiences of both styles of music."
