"Stranger On The Shore" made 3 chart appearances in 1962. Mr. Acker Bilk recorded the instrumental version that topped the charts for 1 week. Andy Williams & the Drifters recorded the same tune with vocals. Andy Williams'version was a top 40 hit while the Drifters' version made a brief chart appearance but "bubbled under' for the most part.
