M'm M'm Good, M'm M'm Good, That's what Campbell's soup is M'm M'm Good. The Campbell soup kids appeared in commercials produced for highly rated shows as Lassie, and promoted their wholesomeness in ads touting the slogan.

This is the introduction of the What's My Line panelists for June 26, 1960. It was the night after a freak accident, originating from Arlene Francis' Manhattan home, in which an unfortunate passerby was killed. Arlene lived in an eighth-floor apartment at the Ritz Tower at the corner of Park Avenue and 57th Street. Eight-pound weightlifting dumbbells were used to prop open a screen window of the apartment where an air conditioning unit had been removed. On the night before this show aired, while Arlene was in Connecticut peforming in a play, a maid accidentally knocked a dumbbell out the window. It struck a luckless pedestrian on the street below and killed him! The victim, Alvin M. Rodecker, a financier from Detroit, was visiting New York City with his wife to celebrate his 60th birthday. (Rodecker's wife noted the last thing her husband said was what a wonderful time he was having.) In 1962 Francis paid Rodecker's estate $175,000 in an out-of-court settlement. The Ritz Tower paid $10,000. John Daly congratulates Arlene on appearing so soon on WML after the awful incident.

Hi all. Sorry I had to take a break from the site as my daughter was going through some turmoil and needed my attention. I hope all is well friends.
I have to share an experience that was way beyond cool for me. I have recently been granted access to a local music studio that my nephew’s rock band rents space in and I have been writing songs and practicing guitar up there for a couple of weeks now. Last Thursday night, I went to the studio, and was let in by my friend Tim. He was sitting with a friend, and I set off to the smoking room before I went to work. Tim and his friend come up, and we start talking. After about 10 minutes, I realize that I’ve seen Tim’s friend before, but couldn’t place him. Then he made a comment about when he plays a certain song in concert, some people are really surprised to hear that he wrote it. The song is this one here, Stay Awhile, and the man’s name is Ken Tobias. I couldn’t believe it. This man had a string of Canadian hits in the mid 70s, and wrote this song that The Bells made famous. He is originally from here, but after a few years in Toronto and LA, he made the decision to come back home to live. He hung out with us all night, and was as cool as could be. A surreal moment came when sitting in Tim’s office, I looked across at Ken sitting on a couch and saw right above his head, a framed and signed album cover from him featuring his portrait from 1976. It was a night that I will remember for a long time. He is still very active in the local music scene here, and still performs occasionally. If we cross paths again, I must get a pic taken with him. I will post a Ken Tobias video later on, but I always loved this song. Very pretty melody. Thanks for letting me share a cool memory for me friends.

The triva picture of Father Merrin arriving to perform an exorcism just doesn't do it justice so I made a quick video of it since I have the movie in digital format. The scene in the movie doesn't have the song "Tubular Bells" playing during the scene but I added it for effect! In the scene you'll see "Regan" or should I say the "Demon" realizing Father Merrin has been summond and also knows when he arrives. About 1 minute long....

Here's a few minutes from Liberace's 1954 Christmas show. He invites you to sing a chorus of Jingle Bells as he plays.
