I've seen thar Christmas Show of Jackie Gleason it was called the Christmas 🎄 party. There was a lot of acts stopping by that party and to my surprise a young Frankie Avalon came in a played his horn !
An accomplished musician. Always respect his talent. A great trumpet man. and a super fine drummer. He used Roger Ryan from my home town as his arranger and drummer. Frankie what a super phenominal entertainer. First class musician from the word go thank you for posting this.
Here is the very episode of The Jackie Gleason show that Frankie is talking about (this was a Honeymooners skit that took up the length of an entire show that featured many of Jackie's characters). Frankie is introduced by Norton and appears a bit more than half way through the episode. ua-cam.com/video/3YyvQQx2bxI/v-deo.html

He is more handsome now than when he was in his twenties
