Maybe you recall hearing this as the theme for the Late Movie on one of the TV channels in your area. It was, in fact, reissued in 1962 with the different title "Night Theme." Prior to his careers as a major song publisher and some producing and conducting duties for RCA Victor, Nevins in 1939 had been co-founder of the popular instrumental trio The Three Suns.
45rpm: RCA Victor 7663 - Blues For G-String (Albertine) by Al Nevins & His Orchestra.
now i'm reminded of those 'gatefold' albums with the play by play description of what instruments are left or right--'the violins start out left and the cellos answer them on the right whilst the muted trumpets wait their turn til the timechange in the middle...then it's the saxes on left duking it out with fullforce trumpets and trombones on right...then back to the beginning but with a little more dazzle'
