Why are you tormenting us, Dave?? I pledged!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:37pm mariano:

There's must be such a treasure trove of Beatles cover from the 60s from variety shows alone.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:38pm mariano:

Careful Sweet Corn Lizzie, don't tempt him to play anything from the 1976 Sgt Pepper!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:38pm Ken From Hyde Park:

Only the highest caliber of Fake Beatles Expert could rank these in the correct order. Whew, I'm glad it's not my task!

Used to watch the Lawrence Welk Show with my grandparents, God Bless their souls, oh so many years ago. Heck, now I’m one too.
Cool stuff Dave.
  10:38pm Elvis Causticfellow:

Spazz, you are making me realize I can hate the Beatles' songs even more than I do in their original versions.
Avatar 🙉 Swag For Life Member 10:40pm Gaylord Fields:

Thanks, Dave, for this flabby Fab Four musical tribute via Lawrence Welk! I have a tear in my eye (that’s “tear” as in gouging my eyes out, temporarily forgetting I hear with my ears). Thanks to all my radio friends, including Chop Scott, Greg from ZONE 5, Ken From Hyde Park, Scott Williams, Motorbro, AS from MP, mariano, Wild Honey, kym, Dungaroos Kipawah (“SUGARBOY!!!”), yippie, and Bob from Poughkeepsie, for the kind birthday wishes, and an early HB to you, Joe R.!

Happy birthday Gaylord!
  10:46pm Elvis Causticfellow:

I had a long-running argument with a bartender over who was funnier: Lenny Bruce or Henny Youngman. This was back in the days when you could have a longterm relationship with your bartender. To me, the answer was so obvious I could barely believe anyone could disagree with me.
Avatar 🙉 Swag For Life Member 10:47pm Gaylord Fields:

@Johnny S: Henny’s Revenge: We now sound as wheezy and world-weary as he did then.

@Listener Wolfgang: Thank you kindly!

Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:49pm mariano:

My favorite Youngmanism is the one about the doctor who gave a guy six months to live. Guy said he couldn't pay the bill, so the doc gave him another six months. (yes I first heard it in Goodfellas).

I love Sunny and this cover is a revelation.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:10pm TheLoneliestMonk:

Mitchum's roommate when he first hit L.A. was dating...Norma Jean Mortenson
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:11pm mariano:

I found out about Mitchum's calypso album at the same time I found out that my grandfather and two of his friends briefly owned a nightclub in San Pedro Sula, Honduras (late 50s), and that on opening night the three of them lip-synced in drag (coconut bras, grass skirts) to a song from the album. I was like "Mom, hold on a sec please. You're telling me Grandpa performed in drag? And followup: Robert Mitchum had a calypso album?!" It's also hands down one of the best album covers of all time: www.discogs.com...
Avatar 🙉 Swag For Life Member 11:11pm Wild Honey:

@phat I was just going to say the same thing. Mitchum really sells it
  11:11pm Elvis Causticfellow:

Mitchum!

Sweet musk of heavily-worn trench coat,
whiff of crankcase oil, elixir of armpit glue
beaded and roiled along the latissimus
dorsi, taint of belly button grease,
lovely gland effusion between the fingers,
butane faint chocolate buttocks smell,

rain-dampened nostril hair, chalky leek
of penis, musky citronella of balls and
epidymus, gun-metal paste-fur of groin,
funky debris of toe and instep:
splendid humus, expectorations, bold,
never bottled or sold.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:12pm TheLoneliestMonk:

Someone asked Mitch once if he ever went there.
"She was like someone's screwed up kid sister. Even *I* didn't go after that"

Thanks, kpx, Johnny S, TheLoneliestMonk, blah blah blah Fietje!!!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:16pm TheLoneliestMonk:

'thunder road' coulda been a minor classic, but the ending is SO bad!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:16pm Tommy in Neversink:

Mitchum got so tired of Otto Preminger asking him to repeatedly slap a woman until he was satisfied with a scene that the slapped Preminger ..who then wanted to fire him but the studio wouldn't let him
  11:17pm Nate K:

Keely Smith was in this one, I think.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:18pm TheLoneliestMonk:

Spazzy: did u hit 'out of the past' yet? Been ripped off many times, many ways!
  11:20pm kpx:

Robert mitchum had a son who was an actor. forgot his name and what happened to him.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:23pm TheLoneliestMonk:

This is the one I meant. A bit of an atypical western:
Track of the Cat (1954)
Avatar 11:23pm Motobro:

Mariano, thats a cool family story.
  11:25pm Nate K:

Holding out for a “Scrooged” drop in.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:26pm mariano:

There's a Robert Mitchum flick from the 70s, "The Friends of Eddie Coyle." There's a scene at the beginning where he's telling a younger guy about how someone broke his fingers by putting them in a drawer and kicking it shut. Real masterclass in tough-guy storytelling.

Thanks Motobro, wish I could travel back in time to see it!

@Nate: "They're paying your salary, you ass!!"
Avatar 🙉 Swag For Life Member 11:38pm Stevel:

mariano: Have to check that flick out. That scene sounds a bit like Harvey Keitel explaining how to work a strong-arm robbery, break the manager's finger if he gives you any lip. All very businesslike.
