On the Neon Beat this week: WE'RE BACK after a hiatis with technical issues. Resolved and sounding better than ever. Nat King Cole launches Juke 1 as we dance “The Continental” from the floor in Vegas. Then we go “Swinging Down the Lane” with Kay Starr. Juke 2 begins with a slam dunk version of “Let's Fall in Love” by the Four Aces followed up with a great Cole Porter song sung by Ella Fitzgerald. Then we team up Frank Sinatra with his daughter Nancy for “Something Stupid.” Jukebox 3 begins with Dean Martin's signature song from the film, “the Caddy.” We'll listen to the “Lullaby of Broadway,” by Doris Day, followed up with “Standing on the Corner” by the Four Lads. Hear more fine period groups like The Seekers, The Vogues, The Fortunes, Peter Paul and Mary, The Beatles, The McGuire Sisters, and The Mills Brothers. Listen to those great stage and screen songs with Margaret Whiting singing one from “South Pacific.” Hear actor Danny Kaye with a lovely young'un singing “The Music Goes Round and Round” from The Five Pennies. Hear Louis Armstrong himself with a song from “Hello Dolly”, Henry Mancini with the song from “Charade,” and another from Henry from the film, “Brian's Song.” Listen to Petula Clark with “This is My Song” from the Countess From Hong Kong” and Ferrante and Teicher at the dual keyboards for the theme from “Midnight Cowboy.” More songs from the hitmakers of the day like Johnny Mathis, Ray Charles, Doris Day, Nat King Cole, Connie Francis and many more.
