Back in the 1950's, perhaps early 1960's, Jackie Gleason produced and directed quite a few LP recordings of some of the most beautful music ever put on vinyl. Mostly great standards from the best composers. At one time they were available on CD but I am not sure about today.

One of my all-time favorite sitcoms. Much better than the crap currently on today's TV.

@DavidJ751990 You're right - The Boss is cutting up the fake money. One of my favorite episodes.

I believe the Simpsons' Cletus would say it best, when he done say... "HOW SWEET IT IS!!"

[DocHallenstein]

Takes me back. I'm laying on the living room floor. Mom on the davenport. Dad in the big rocking chair. There we were. Watching the Honeymooners in black & white. Little did we know, that just a few years later, dad would be gone and mom and I would be right there again watching the first man walk on the moon.

[captain2112]

What a blast from the past! Great. I grew up with this show, and its so nice to hear the open every now and again.

Thanks for posting this.

It's true they didn't need cussing or sexual inuendo to be funny. But those threats of domestic violence were hilarious.

Yes, the "to the moon Alice" stuff wouldn't be allowed now, but we always knew that he would never actually lay a hand on her.

[WSenator1]

@articoli - She knew (and loved) her husband, and he knew (and loved) her. "Sides, if he ever came close to really laying a hand on her, she woulda killed him!

[courthouse96]

Very nostalgic indeed!

just a relaxing nostalgic tune to one of the funniest shows ever. funny, they did'nt need cussing or sexual inuendo to be funny.

[elperromagico]

That is one of the most beautiful TV theme songs ever written.

[WSenator1]

@elperromagico - You got that right!

[WSenator1]

@elperromagico - Agreed. But as I got older I was struck by the fact that this gorgeous theme introduced some of the greatest slapstick, pants-falling-down humor we've had the privilege of seeing. How ironic - and beautiful!
