On the Neon Beat this week: Herb Alpert launches this week with a film favorite from 1967. The theme from “Casino Royale.” You'll hear lots more stage and film this week including Dean Martin and the Four Lads singing a song from Frank Loesser's play, “A Most Happy Fellow,” Ella Fitzgerald performs a fine Gershwin show selection and some Cole Porter from “Anything Goes,” The Brothers Four with a song from the 1960 John Wayne film, The Alamo,” Jerry Vale sings the theme from “Three Coins in the Fountain,” Tony Bennett with a standard from “Sound of Music,” the Marvelous Marilyn Maye with a amorous song from “Kismet,” and Vic Damone sings songs from the movies “Laura” and “Pal Joey.” Enjoy a couple of instrumental movie themes. Elmer Bernstien's theme from “The Great Escape” and Paul Mauriat's theme from “Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.” Laugh a little as we team up Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis for “The Money Song.” Hear the Lettermen with the theme from “A Summer Place,” and a period 1960's boob tube theme from the TV network drama “Ben Casey” by Valjean. We'll play the song that defined an era called “Unforgettable” by Nat King Cole. And Nat will be back on Juke 3 for his classy rendition of “Lush Life.” Listen as we spin songs by the period hit makers like Frank Sinatra with “Love and Marriage,” The Platters with “The Great Pretender,” “The Last Farewell,” with Roger Whittaker, and “Sign of the Times” by Petula Clark. More with Harry Belefonte, Rosemary Clooney, The Association and a delightful childhood memory performed by The Limeliters. Lots more.
