Spike Jones and his City Slickers with guest Frank Sinatra from a show broadcast live on January 10, 1948. This band specialized in satirical arrangements of popular songs and classical music. Ballads receiving the Jones treatment were filled with gunshots, whistles, cowbells and outlandish comic vocals. From the early 1940's to the mid 50's Spike Jones and his City Slickers recorded and toured the United States and Canada as "The Musical Depreciation Revue" If you have never heard this band... you are in for a shock! :) Thanks for listening here or on Itunes, or Google Play Music. If you enjoy the track, give us a "heart" as it helps me determine future program selections. Thanks!
