The 1979-1983 orchestra included two originals from the 1927 Aragon debut of Wayne King and Orchestra: Violinist Herb Miska and the "Waltz King" himself.

Vocalist Nancy Evans joined Wayne King at age 14 1/2 in 1945 when Wayne King reorganized his band after serving 2 and 1/2 years in the U.S. Army during WWII.

Vocalist Ed Bolton was Wayne King's last male vocalist having joined the band in 1979, touring through to Wayne's retirement tour in Florida in 1983. Violinist Tasker Day was responsible for Wayne discovering his last new vocal star, ED BOLTON. Wayne once told Ed Bolton, "You have an unusually beautiful singing voice. If I'd have known about you years ago, I'd have used the hell out of you."
