On the Neon Beat show: Remembering Brian Wilson. This hour, along with the usual tasty faire of great music from the 1940's, 50's and 60's, you'll hear a couple of hit songs by the Beach Boys. We'll open with a classic selection by Rosemary Clooney and she sings “April in Paris”. We follow that up with “Fun Fun Fun” by the Beach Boys as we trip out a bit on “the endless summer”. Enjoy a little period piece with Georgia Gibbs as we hear “The Hula Hoop Song”. We'll track some of the great standards sung by Bobby Vinton, Guy Mitchell, Tony Bennett, Diane Reeves, and Connie Francis. Listen to fine period instrumentals by Herb Alpert, Henry Mancini, The Glenn Miller Orchestra and Authur Ferrante and Louis Teicher. Turn up what was one of the fine showcase records for the group's tight harmony as we listen to the Beach Boys singing “In My Room”. More with Matt Monro and Frankie Avalon.
