On the Neon Beat this week uploaded to Mixcloud: We open this hour with an Ocean's 11 song performed in the film by Dean Martin. “Aint that a Kick in the Head.” Then we launch into Peggy Lee as she sings “Come Back to Me!” Turn up more hits of stage and film as Robert Goulet sings his signature song from “Camelot.” Hear the Mills Brothers with a Frank Loesser standard from “A Most Happy Fella.” We'll spin and soulful version of “Ruby” sung by Ray Charles and enjoy and song from 'West Side Story” performed by Vic Damone. Hear Dion and the Belmonts with a song from a Rogers and Hart musical called, “Babes in Arms.” Listen to Nat King Cole with a WW2 jukebox favorite called “Straighten Up and Fly Right.” After that, enjoy some smooth big band with Harry James with his Orchestra doing “A Sleepy Lagoon” followed up with Frank Sinatra singing “You're Getting to be a Habit with Me.” Catch a golden set starting with Glen Campbell's hit rendition of “Gentle On My Mind.” Then we'll drop a needle on Gale Storm's “I Hear You Knocking” followed up with Rick Nelson singing “Traveling Man.” Listen to the golden horn of Louis Armstrong with “Dream a Little Dream of Me.” Then we'll wrap up the hour with Bob Hope and actress Shirley Ross singing our mantra for the show, “Thanks for the Memories.” More songs with Patti Page, The Carpenters and Herb Alpert.
