On the Neon Beat Show 89R6: Perry Como starts the hour up with what was a country song written by Slim Willet. Listen to Perry's 1952 hit record “Don't Let the Stars Get in Your Eyes”. Then hear America's sweethearts, Steve and Eydie; with the song “Dancing Cheek to Cheek” followed up with Andy Williams singing “Lips of Wine”. Listen to our period film and stage offerings as we play Diana Ross singing the theme from “Mahogany”. Ella Fitzgerald does some Cole Porter performing a number from “Du Barry was a Lady”. We'll spin Sammy Davis Jr's hit song from the play, “Stop the World I Wanna Get Off”. And we'll spin a song from Guys and Dolls sung by Dinah Washington”. Also catch a TV theme by Lalo Schifrin originally entitled, “The Burning Fuse”. We'll team up Louis Prima and Keely Smith from Vegas singing “Baby Won't You Please Come Home”. Catch some Frank Sinatra with Nelson Riddle's Orchestra doing “It Happened In Monterrey”. And Vic Damone with a song from Rodgers and Hammerstein's “Cinderella”. Hear a 1965 hit song for Nat King Cole called “LOVE”, Connie Stevens with “16 Reasons” and Roy Orbison's “Dream Baby”. More with Sarah Vaughan, Lyle Lovett, and one from the Apple record label as the Beatles sing the charming hit song “When I'm 64”. Hear instrumentals by Leroy Anderson, and Henry Mancini too.
