Serry recorded for Decca during this time and also collaborated with RCA Victor's Ben Selvin, producing an electrical transcription for RCA Thesaurus (1954). He composed, arranged and performed several compositions for Dot Records (#DLP3024) with Al Caiola and Bernie Leighton on his album "Squeeze Play" (1956). The production received a critical review as a new popular album in "The Billboard" in 1956 and was cited for establishing a beautiful soothing mood. The album was also critically reviewed in "Cash Box" magazine later that year. Serry was applauded for establishing a wide variety of musical moods with grace, while simultaneously emphasizing a relaxed performance style. In 1958 several songs from the album were released once again in France by Versailles records (# 90 M 178) as "Chicago Musette - John Serry et son Accordéon". These activities led to Serry's nomination to the "Who Is Who In Music International" in 1958.
