On the Neon Beat Show 113R6: Sinatra opens our show this hour with one of his highest charting hit songs, “Strangers in the Night”. Rosemary Clooney then takes the stage for a rousing version of “April in Paris”. You'll enjoy more theatre and film themes including Dean Martin and Rick Nelson from “Rio Bravo”, The theme from Midnight Cowboy with John Barry's Orchestra backing the harmonica of Toots Thielmans, and Henry Mancini with the theme from “Darling Lili”. Also we team up Bing Crosby with Bob Hope for a hilarious song from one of their “road” movies: “Put er' There Pal”. (Bob to Bing: “Confidentially, do you like this as much as singing?”) We'll also pair up Andy Williams with Petula Clark for a song as it aired on Andy's TV show. Listen to Nat King Cole with “Walking My Baby Back Home”and Vic Damone with a smooth rendition of an ol' Ray Noble hit. Hear some great period groups like Chad and Jeremy with the lovely and reticent “Summer Song” and The Lettermen with their vocal version of “Our Winter Love”. Hear Lorne Green with a song from the Ponderosa telling the story of “Ringo”. Instrumentals with Morris Stoloff, Harry James, Bert Kaempfert and the fabulous Spitfire Band of Canada. And hear Patti Page as she sings of “The Green Green Grass of Home”. Listen and enjoy kids!
