The Neon Beat - 6.20.21

On the Neon Beat (show 51R6)  Tony Bennett leads the hour with a song he confessed he'd rather not have recorded.  He was to say, “It just wasn't me.”  As it turned out, a 1957 chart hit for him. Next we do a little blue-sy rendition of “Dream on Little Dreamer” by Perry Como followed by Peggy Lee, “It's All Over Now.”  Then we'll cap that first segment with a swingin' version of “My Blue Heaven” by Frank Sinatra.  Next we'll track film and stage selections kicking off with Dean Martin followed with Lena Horne and Bing Crosby with Louis Armstrong.  We'll do some swinging next with Les Brown and his Band of Renown with “Leap Frog.”  Hear the Four Knights with “I Get so Lonely,” Doris Day with a sultry version of “Moonglow”, Bobby Darin with “Clementine” and Eydie Gorme and the Cookies as we “Blame it on the Bossa Nova”.  Sing along with Mitch Miller for “Shine on Harvest Moon.”  Hear more film music with Vic Damone singing “Laura” and Simon and Garfunkel from “The Graduate.”  More with Glen Campbell, Bill Pursell's haunting and beautiful “Our Winter Love”, and Les Paul with wife Mary Ford with “Waiting for the Sunrise.”   Wait no more.  Have a listen and enjoy at Mix-cloud.
