Just an observation here, but on St. Louis Blues, there’s another performance they did on a different episode where Kenny is standing right next to Guy during the vocal chorus. And you can prominently hear Cliff Grass singing the first few lines of the vocal chorus too. Cliff even spruces up the clarinet solo too. In another clip of them doing the song, the clarinet solo after the vocal chorus was watered down and basic.
In memory of Daytime Talk Show Host, Phillip John "Phil" Donahue. 1935-2024. He was 1 out of the First 5 Daytime Talk Show Hosts that I remember in my Life; the others being Oprah Winfrey (1954-), Sally Jessy Rahael (1935-), Geraldo Rivera (1943-), and Joan Rivers (1933-2014).
*Dreams are a sauce of mystery that relishes the thoughts of our under-waking lives. In flits or starts we peripatically find ourselves whisked inside our own discovery of another prize. This is all we wonder through in our tattered, homely hand. Confusion set so concise and open while warm and full of stars*
I live on Long Island, about 3 miles from Freeport, where Guy Lombardo lived. The street that goes by the house where he used to live is named after him, but I'll bet that 75% of Freeort's current residents have no idea who he was.
As a former Chicagoan, I love all these YT channels that upload these gems. I wanted to be a DJ when I was a kid. Super CFL and the Big 89 was always on my transistor radio, and my Mo and Dad had either WGN or WJJD on.
My favorite Houli moment was on Valentines day. At the end of the broadcast, after doing a short story about Valentines day, Mac, Christine, Houli, and the sports guy came back to sign off. Houlihan had a large heart pinned to his lapel, and with a straight face said. I guess you've all noticed that I've got a big heart on.
Thanks for sharing! I actually found a copy of this record in a thrift store dumpster in Peoria not long ago. You wouldn't believe what some of those places throw away.
