The Neon Beat - 8.15.21

On The Neon Beat (show 57R6)  Big band leader Vaughn Monroe launches this segment for us with his signature hit song, “Racing with the Moon.”  Benny Goodman follows up with a fun Johnny Mercer standard, “Goody Goody.”  Next we raise the temperature in the room with Peggy Lee's “Fever.”  Then we listen to a hit record that defined an era:  Nat King Cole's “Unforgettable.”  Catch some great theatre and film music with Ella Fitzgerald singing a scorching number from “Kiss Me Kate” and Andy Williams with the theme from “Love Story.”  Enjoy some more big band with Glen Gray and the Casa Loma Orchestra with “Topsy!” followed up with a Rat Pack number featuring Frank Sinatra and Sammy Davis Jr.  Enjoy two songs to get ya smiling beginning with Johnny Mathis with “A Certain Smile.”  Then Karen and Richard Carpenter do a little country flavoured song called “Sweet Sweet Smile.”  Crank up Walter Wanderley on the Hammond B-3 Organ for his 1966 hit offering of “A Summer Samba.”  Tony Bennett sings another Broadway favorite from “Gypsy.”  More songs with Dean Martin, Pat Boone and Bing Crosby.  Go to:
