Music for your New Year's Eve - In Color!

It is New Year's Eve in 1956.  Robert Montgomery Presents makes a rather radical change from its usual dramatic format and provides a live hour of music for the stay-at-homers of a New Year's Eve.  Mr. Montgomery introduces the musical numbers and the telecast is "In Color" (for all you lucky people who had color TV sets in 1956).  Besides the numbers listed below (Little White Duck ... really?), the show featured "Mr. Touchdown, U.S.A.", "Soft Summer Breeze" and other Holiday favorites. (Why do I think Bob had little input into the evening's musical selections ...)  Anyway, an hour of watching blue-eyed Bob in living color ... that would've been great. 


And no matter how you choose to observe the last Holiday of 2019, may you enjoy it fully.  Happy New Year 2020!!
