What Are You Listening To? November 2018

[Zeeba Neighba]

Mitch Miller and The Gang - Sing Along With Mitch



Old-timey? Yes. Cheesy and dated? Absolutely
But do I believe that kids today are missing out on something by not knowing ditties like "Sweet Adeline" and "For Me and My Gal"? Yes, damn it, I do!
("the Whiffenpoof Song" OTOH probably should slip out of the public consciousness forever)

Are there multiple covers for that album? Because I swear I have seen other pix for that one. Could be wrong. Could be not.

Mitch was usually a big hit around the P's crib. He seemed like the only dude (not in a Western) at the time who was sporting a beard.
