The Neon Beat on Radio George - 12.9.19

On the Neon Beat this week: Sammy Davis Jr kicks off this week with an offering for the sweet tooth as Sammy and the Mike Curb Congregation sing “The Candy Man.” Then listen to a film theme sung by Connie Francis from the movie “Where the Boys Are,” followed with a jazzy rendition of “Beyond the Sea” by Bobby Darin. Jukebox 2 starts with “The Rock N' Roll Waltz” by Oklahoman, Kay Starr. Then we try a little “Mambo Italiano” with Dean Martin. Listen to Barbra Streisand as she sings “My Heart Belongs to Me.” Juke 3 begins with a “walkin'” number by Nat King Cole, followed up with another Sammy Davis hit song from the production of “Golden Rainbow.” Hear more stage and film selections like actress Julie Andrews singing a song from “My Fair Lady,” Ella Fitzgerald with number from “Kiss Me Kate,” Morris Stoloff with the theme from “Picnic,” Michel Legrand's lovely “Theme from the Summer of 42,” Roger Williams with a song from the 1953 film, “Lili,” and Rosemary Clooney with a song from the 1937 film, “Ready Willing and Able.” More theatre and film music with Bette Midler singing a song from “Lady and the Tramp,” Louis Armstrong and Danny Kaye perform a fun romping version of “When the Saints Go Marching In,” from “The Five Pennies, and hear the Marvelous Marilyn Maye with an amorous number from “Kismet.” Get your Sinatra fix with several hits including “Strangers in the Night.” Listen to great period instrumentals by Kai Winding, Si Zentner, Harry James, Hugo Winterhalter, Michel Legrand, and Barry White's Love Unlimited Orchestra. The great groups abound with hits by the Dixie Cups, the Skyliners, the Chiffons, the Everly Brothers, Chad and Jeremy and the Carpenters.
