Draft: Spike Jones – Vic Damone. 480213.

The Spotlight Revue welcomes as it’s guest, Vic Damone, and featuring Spike Jones, the City Slickers, and the Park Avenue Hillbilly Dorothy Shea.

Playlist:

  1. Spike opens with, Shuffle Off to Buffalo.
  2. Dorothy talks with Spike about the show being broadcast from Buffalo today. Spike shows off his new dog, then
  3. Dorothy sings, The Sample Song.
  4. Spike has a little trouble with his dog, but along with the City Slickers, they all perform an operetic number. What a mix of opera sopranos, gunshots, cowbells, and plumbing fixtures. A feat that only Spike could pull off.
  5. Dorothy and Spike are back to introduce Vic Damon, and he shares a little about how he got started. Spike offers to hook up Vic with a gal, as if he needs the help.
  6. Vic sings, Love is Just Around the Corner.
  7. After the mid show commercial, Spike plays it straight with a swinging number to transition back into the show.
  8. Dorothy sings, This Can’t Be Love.
  9. Doodles Weaver, as Professor Feetlebaum is in fine voice as he attempts the classic, How Soon. Oh the lyrics, oh the jokes, oh the… horse race?
  10. Medley time. Vic sings, It’s Spring Again, I Love You. Dorothy sings, I Love You, Sweetheart of All My Dreams. Spike wraps up with a musical expression of love that is truly worthy of his tallents. Hey, I think I detect a theme in the show’s medley. You would think this show aired the day before Valentines Day or something.
