On the Neon Beat this week on Mx-Cloud: We open this week's upload of great music of the 1940's, 50's and 60's with a couple of film selections. Tom Jones leads the hour with the theme from “What's New Pussycat?” followed with Elvis Presley with “Viva Las Vegas.” You'll hear more music of the silver screen with Andy Williams singing the theme from “The Godfather.” Also catch a period boob tube selection with Ray Anthony's theme from “Dragnet.” Listen to an amorous rendition of “Black Coffee” performed by bombshell, Julie London. Nat King Cole and the trio will do that song about cruisin' the mother road as we get our kicks on “Route 66.” Listen to the lovely Patti Page with the song, “I'll Remember Today.” Crank up some great songs by the fine period groups like The Four Lads, Mitch Miller and the Gang, and The Neon Philharmonic. Bobby Darin takes command of the stage with a swingin' performance of “A Nightingale In Berkeley Square.” Rock along with Buddy Knox's “Party Doll” and hear actress Debbie Reynolds with a steamy version of “Moonglow.” More with the keyboard of George Shearing, and a “Peaceful” song by Australian Helen Reddy.
