Driving to work this morning I came across a station out of Virginia, I thought it was kinda
strange to hear Peter Marshall from the Hollywood Squares on the air as dj, but he played the tune Cry Me a River by Julie London.
The song sounded nothing like the same Julie who years later would do Emergency.
A while back I read a book by penny Stallings about the large number of sitcom stars ( even non-sitcom stars ) putting out records and such.
Some I heard like William Shatner doing Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds or Mae West doing the Doors Light My Fire. I also heard Joe Ross ( Car 54 ) doing a song based on his own catch phrase "oohh oooohh". John Travolta's "Let her In" isnt all that bad.
same with "Ringo" by Lorne Greene from Bonanza.
Strangest one I heard was "We Love You..Call Collect" by Art Linkletter and his daughter Diane. Very dated but cool !! Kinda of sad as Diane died not long after doing this record.
The Brady Bunch, Disi Arnaz, The Flintstones, even The Simpsons had CDs out recently but many sitcom records I have never heard.
Has anyone heard songs by...
Irene Ryan ( Granny from Beverly Hillbillies ) her Granny's Mini skirt always pop up on lists as being so bad.
Leverne & Shirley ( their album )
Patty Duke
Jay North
The Odd Couple Sings !!( the album )
The Beaver
Donny Most
Ted Knight
Blair ( Facts of Life ) her religious CD.
Kojak " You lost that lovin feelin"
even Hoss from Bonanza had a record out.
Good or bad?
I'm sure there are many others I left out.
oh but the way..remember Nick Clooney from AMC, George Clooney's dad? He is on the radio
on 1530 WSAI out of Cincinatti. If you live in the midwest or the east coast you can pick up his morning show.
