The Neon Beat - 1.16.21

On the Neon Beat:  We start things out swingin' as we open the hour with Kay Starr from one of her most celebrated albums.  Harry Connick Jr is next with a little “Recipe for Makin' Love.”  We'll hit the dance floor with selections by Ella Fitzgerald and a “live from Vegas” cut with Nat King Cole. Grab some slow close dancing as we listen to the Ames Brothers with the lovely “You You You” backed with Hugo Winterhalter's orchestra.  Hear the Marvelous Marilyn Maye with “Sherry.”  Get your Sinatra fix as he belts out what'd be his 6th or 7th take for “That's Life.”  (Hence the almost exasperated  “My Myyyy” at the end.)  Catch a folk set with Bobby Darin and one by Melanie Safka by request.  More with Ferrante and Teicher, Wayne Newton, Patti Page, Perry Como and Dinah Shore.  Crank it.
