Music History Buffs..I need your help..PLEASE

Im making a CD for my parent's anniversary party and Im putting love songs through all of the decades that theyve been together and the one song my mom has mentioned that reminds her of my dad (because it was playing on their first date) is called Red sails in the sunset. I looked it up and found that several artists sang it...Bing Crosby, Nat King Cole, and alot of artists, so I causually mentioned that I had seen it on a Louis Armstrong CD and she said she thought someone named TAD sang it. I have NO clue what shes talking about...they started dating in 1955/ 1956 when they were 15..and I think the song was a big hit at that time...can anyone help me????? PLEASE!!!! this is the last song I need to complete this CD!!! Thanks so much!!

I found a reference to a Tab Hunter who sang this song. Here's the link .

I'll see if I can find anything else...

ETA: It was in 1957.

You're welcome!
I can't find an mp3 of the song, so you might have to buy the CD, if it's still available. GOOD LUCK!!
