Neon Beat on Radio George - 12.10.18
On The Neon Beat this week: The first lady of song opens Juke 1 and 3 with two fine standards: Ella Fitzgerald sings the George and Ira Gershwin standard “I Got Rhythm,” and a Cole Porter selection from “Kiss me Kate.” Enjoy more great American standards with Frank Sinatra’s award winning rendition of “A Very Good Year” with the Gordon Jenkins Orchestra. Hear some more classic Cole Porter with Roy Rogers. Lena Horne sings “The Lady is a Tramp” and Nat King Cole performs more great Gershwin singing, “Our Love is Here to Stay.” We’ll spin hit songs by the great period groups like, The Fontane Sisters, The Four Preps, The McGuire Sisters, The Seekers, and the one major chart hit for Sumpthin’ Smith and the Redheads. Listen to fine orchestral selections with Paul Mauriat’s 1968 chart buster, “L’amour Est Bleu,” Ray Anthony with the theme from “Peter Gunn,” The British group, “Sounds Orchestral” with the beautiful “Cast your Fate to the Wind,” Andre Previn’s 1959 jazzy hit, “Like Young,” and some great big band with Harry James, “Carnival.” We’ll team up Louis Prima and Keely with “Baby Won’t You Please Come Home.” We’ll spin songs with Dean Martin, Doris Day, Bobby Darin and Matt Monro.
