The Scene Changes is Perry Como's 12th RCA Victor 12-inch long-play album.[3]
The Scene Changes combines Como's vocals with the "Nashville sound" of producer Chet Atkins and vocal arranger Anita Kerr.[1] Songs for the album were recorded at RCA Victor's Nashville studios.[4] The album included two early Willie Nelson compositions and a recent top 30 Como single, "Dream On Little Dreamer".
