    I'm old enough to remember this. Dinah Shore was one of the last of the great big band singers and Previn was a genius across the spectrum of music.

    Dinah--what charm, poise, and singing and acting talent did she posses. Very delightful presentation of these great songs. I remember the good feeling I got watching her perform on the Dinah Shore Chevy Show!

    I can't help thinking of the final scene from Mel Brook's "Blazing Saddles" with Count Basie & His Orchestra playing the last few measures of "April In Paris" as Cleavon Little is leaving this deserted Desert town & stops on His horse for a moment to 'Salute Count Basie & His Band as He rides off into the Sunset

    what a surprise !!!!! I always regarded Dinah as a singer of pleasant pop song Here she swings to the accompaniment of Previn which was IN my opinion not easy to follow

      Yes, it's a nice surprise. Thirty years ago I used to listen to a radio station at work (I owned the business) and the station had a couple of hours in the afternoon when they played "older" music and interviewed musicians, conductors, composers. I recall a big band leader saying that Teresa Brewer was an excellent big band singer and that Doris Day could handle a jazz tune as well as a top jazz singer. People have surprises. In college in the sixties there was an alto player who was pretty good and then I heard him one day playing a string bass like he invented it. "Where'd you learn to play like that?" I said and he answered, "From my father. Bass in my first instrument." He's been making a living playing alto sax and bass and giving lessons for the past 60 years.

      Dinah Shore was a big band singer, adept in most any style. By 1959, her voice was still pretty good, but not like it was in the 40's. UA-cam has some good shorts of her from that era.

    Is this a b&w kinescope and somewhere there's a better quality color print with better audio?

    • @RalphDratman

      I don't think the networks were routinely shooting in color in 1959. I did not see a color TV until about 1960, and it was one of the very first, in the home of someone who worked at RCA. That set was not even working right -- the screen would be all green or something. In those years it was notoriously difficult to adjust the color convergence, even for a skilled technician.

      @@RalphDratman NBC's "In Living Color" programs were recorded on 2" videotape starting in late '58 and consistently in 1959. It's very likely the color tape of this show is residing at Research Video which controls all of Dinah Shore's shows. She bought the tapes from NBC in the mid '80s when they were going to trash them. They probably never looked as good when they were broadcast as they do now. Would love to see them all released. JLTV showed about 20 of them in rotation a few years ago. They're beautiful.
