Sing along with Mitch


Mitch Miller died this weekend at the ripe old age of 99. Seriously, who knew he was still alive. Not I for one.

Anyway, those records where a staple of my youth at the grandparents house and played a role in my ever loving relationship with popular music.

There's even some excellent cheesy ads in this clip and Mitch's version of a "minstrel show". Yikes.

Now...let's all follow the bouncing ball!!

Not to mention he was maybe the strangest sideman to ever play with Charlie Parker...
