On the Neon Beat this week: Steve Lawrence launches into Jukebox 1 with his stirring 1960 hit song, “Portrait of My Love.” Next, listen to Frank Sinatra and Sammy Davis Jr with their fun stage version of “Me and My Shadow” followed up with Marilyn Monroe with a steamy Irvin Berlin song. Juke 2 slams open with Perez Prado's “Cherry Pink and Apple Blossom White”with that great Billy Regis trumpet solo. Then we get on a “Slow Boat to China” with Kay Starr. We'll team up Bette Midler with Barry Manilow as they open Juke 3 with an old Peggy Lee standard, “I Love Being Here With You.” Then listen to the song that defined the era, Nat King Cole's “Unforgettable.” Turn up our instrumental offerings as we track a great Glenn Miller standard, “In the Mood.” Hear more swing era music with Harry James' “Ciribiribin.” Les Brown with the Ames Brothes singing, “Moonlight Seranade” and some boob tube music with the Ray Anthony Orchestra performing the “Theme from Peter Gunn.” The fine stage and theatre music abounds with Vic Damone, Ella Fitzgerald, Glen Campbell, Louis Armstrong with Danny Kaye, Andy Williams, Morris Stoloff, The Lettermen, Bob Hope with Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra, Dionne Warwick, Henry Mancini, The Four Lads, Nat King Cole, and Doris Day. Listen to Paul Mauriat's beautiful 1968 hit song, “Love Is Blue.” We'll spin Bobby Darin's “Beyond the Sea,” and The Skyliners with “Since I Don't Have You”. Enjoy a couple of back-of-the-rack favorites with Del Wood's “Down Yonder,” Frankie Laine's “B” side hit, “Rose Rose I Love You,” and we'll warm things up with Mungo Jerry's “In the Summertime.” Lots more!Go to: http://www.radiogeorge.com/neonbeat/NB-Hour1.htm
