Back along about 1958, 1959, or thereabouts, was an album called "Music to Dine By." Maybe it was around before then. The cover of the "box" for the open real tape showed an man and woman, in very nice attire, sitting at a table for two with candlelight. I can hear some of the music, but can't recall any names (of the music).
Do you remember any music on the album, or the orchestra?

Look at Amazon.com for the type of music (Probably in the category "Easy Listening") You might see the album cover. They often used the same photos on LP albums as on tape albums. My dad had some tape albums like that. I mainly had LP's. I have bought several good old albums from Amazon. Try a search on "Music to Dine BY".
The album could have been done by a "no name band." But it could have been done by some out fit like Gordon Jenkins, Montovani, Hugo Winterhalter, Percy Faith, or Frank Chacksfield. Here are some band names from an "Instrumental Gold" album I have that reproduces many popular band pieces from the '50's: Leroy Anderson, Les Baxter, Prez Prado, Frank Mills, Billy Vaughn, Martin Denny, Frank Pourcel, Roger Williams, Nelson Riddle, Ray Conniff, Bert Kaempfert, Don Costa, Robert Maxwell, Arthur Lymon, Les Brown, Richard Hayman, David Rose.
Check some of these names on Amazon and you might see your cover. Sorry I am late on this but I don't look at this side of the Forum often.
