The Neon Beat on Radio George - 1.27.20

On the Neon Beat this week: Dean Martin opens Juke 1 and this week's offerings of great music from the 1940's, 50's and 60's with one of his signature hits, “Everybody Loves Somebody.” Tune in thru all three Jukebox's for more great Italian singers like Frank Sinatra with “Strangers in the Night,” “Anything Goes,” and “I Get a Kick Outta You.” We'll line up Frank, Dean Martin and Bing Crosby for their version of “Can Do” (Fugue for Tinhorns” from Guys and Dolls.) Al Martino sings a song from “Romeo and Juliet.” Listen to Tony Bennett with a jazzy version of another great Cole Porter song, and Perry Como with “A Dreamer's Holiday.” Get your Nat King Cole as he sings “Sweet Lorraine” and the lovely, “Mona Lisa.” Hear songs of the cinema, stage, and TV with The Four Lads singing a song from “Gypsy,” Doris Day with a selection from “Pal Joey,” Andy Williams with a song heard in a 1970's Paul Newman film, The Sandpipers with a tune from “The Sterile Cuckoo,” Don Costa with the Theme from “Never on Sunday,” Herb Alpert and the TJB with the theme from “Zorba the Greek,” and Louis Armstrong with a number from “Hello Dolly.” And actor Fess Parker with the Ballad of Davy Crockett. We'll track selections by the great women of song including Peggy Lee, Ella Fitzgerald, and Anita O'Day with Gene Krupa's big band. We'll spin The Marevelous Marilyn Maye with a song that wow'd em' all on The Tonight Show. Listen to The McGuire Sisters, Rosemary Clooney, Kay Starr, Aretha Franklin and one by Helen Forrest singing with Harry James. Lots more. Lots!
