Checked out "Shabon Dama Holida...Hi J-Canuck,<br /><br />Checked out "Shabon Dama Holiday"... very nostalgic and very old. From the episode I checked out - in black and white, so it was quite difficult for me to watch it... I'm not used to it - there was what seemed to be a vocal group on (and The Peanuts), so I reckon Duke Aces may have appeared on often too. With its music parts and little skits, it seems like the predecessor to The Drifters' shows, but with more jazz.Noelle Thamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02869350840856391942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2501670448657416824.post-84179013777599222392015-01-13T00:04:11.391-05:002015-01-13T00:04:11.391-05:00Hi, Noelle.
As the late bandleader Lawrence Welk ...Hi, Noelle.<br /><br />As the late bandleader Lawrence Welk once put it, "Wonderful, wonderful"! I love the jazz here with the Duke Aces...reminds me of The Ames Brothers, especially with "Lover, Come Back To Me". Along with the enka, I used to hear a lot of ol' standards on the stereo including those guys, Bing Crosby & Rosemary Clooney and Henry Mancini. I also love the Aces' rendition of "Take The A Train"; they were probably quite the popular guests on the old variety shows such as "Shabon Dama Holiday." Since you mentioned that you enjoy the American oldies, just punch in 「シャボン玉ホリデー」into YouTube.<br /><br />Also, since you've included Babs into the article, I have made a separate honourary category for her since I also included her on a Hiromi Iwasaki song (http://kayokyokuplus.blogspot.ca/2012/06/hiromi-iwasaki-niagara.html) a couple of years ago.<br /><br />Good to hear the standards again!J-Canuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09551828383307840403noreply@blogger.com
