Neon Beat on Mixcloud - 7.20.24

On the Neon Beat Show 03R5:  A jampacked show for you this hour as we remember the Button Down Mind of Bob Newhart.  Laugh along for one of his iconic standups “Sir Walter Raleigh/When Tobacco was Introduced to Civilization.”  This hour opens with Nat King Cole's “Send for Me.”  Hear a great Cole Porter film piece from High Society with Bing Crosby and Louis Armstrong.  Vikki Carr with a sassy version of a song from “Oklahoma”.  We'll track fine period instrumentals with Les Brown and his Band of Reknown, Al Hirt, Marvin Hamlisch, and Leroy Anderson.  Dig some Frank Sinatra as he sings “Hidden Persuation.”  We'll spin records by the great period groups The Four Aces, Sergio Mendez and Brazil 66, and the New Colony Six.  Bring your umbrella as we go “Walking in the Rain” with Johnny Ray backed by the Four Lads.  We remember the year 1957 listening to Patti Page's “Old Cape Cod”.   More with Guy Mitchell, Julie London, and “The Ballad of Bonnie and Clyde” by Georgie Fame.  Listen to a heart rending version of “Love is Blue” by Al Martino and another jazzy number by Nat King Cole backed by The Four Knights.  It's a full hour of an extended version of TNB. 

Turn it up and enjoy kids - https://www.mixcloud.com/john.../the-neon-beat-show-03r5/
