The Star Spangled Banner is the twentieth studio album by Pat Boone, released in 1963 on Dot Records.[1][2][3]

Billboard picked the album for its "Spotlight" section. "Leading off with the National Anthem, the program includes a group of memorable patriotic songs and songs of the various Armed Forces — 'Marines Hymn,' 'Anchors Aweigh,' 'The U.S. Air Force,' among them," informs the magazine. "Although this current approach is a far cry from [Pat Boone's] "Tutti Frutti" days, it's the kind of thing which could suddenly catch on," opines the reviewer.[2]
