Possibly the greatest of the Brill Building classics. Someone put this up awhile back but it disappeared, so here it is again. Robert Goulet was just goofing around but Steve Allen put down rock and roll every chance he could. Well, he's gone now and Mary Weiss is still singing. So there.
Whoever originally put this video together did a great job, but the audio was out of sync, so I fixed that, and changed a few slides, so I hope y'all like it. It's a modern classic by the great Tom Lehrer.
This clip gives us a rare and wonderful look at Spike Jones hilarity, with the added delight of seeing Mickey Katz (the short, bald guy playing clarinet) goofing around with the band and even doing his trademark "glugg-glugg". Mickey went on from there to write his Yiddish parodies and the rest is history,
From The Michael Parkinson Show in England, 4 Oct 1980. A super rare video of the master singing one of his lesser known songs. This goes out with thanks to 6funswede for sharing his Tom Lehrer treasure trove with us!
Actress and singer Annie Ross set some hipster jive to a Wardell Grey sax solo and Twisted became a jazz classic. Along with fellow singers Dave Lambert and Jon Hendricks (who sit this one out) the trio Lambert Hendricks and Ross recorded a number of hit albums in the early 60s and is generally regarded as the greatest Jazz vocal group of all time.
One of the best of the Borsht Belt comics of the 1960s. He did a lot of 'insult humor', which inspired many imitators such as Don Rickles, but Jack E. Leonard did it better.
