@reneesluse Landman? Do you believe this was SNooky's last name? On a Mike Douglas Show with Gisele MacKenzie, Snooky stated his real name was Roy Salor.

Great folk story and song...but I'd have to kill myself with the name "Snooky", sorry.

Snooky once share with Mike Douglas on his show that his Mom named him after the song "All Night They Call Me Snooky Ookums." Snooky was a nick name...his real name was Roy Sailor (or something close to that).

A great download of a great song from a great show that many of we old-timers remember.

This was a pretty big hit record for both Billy Vaughn and Rusty Draper in 1955.

When I came across this song, I couldn't help but remember when I used to hear it on Your Hit Parade so many years ago. Thanks for sharing it once again. This song brings back the memory of Snookie Lansen and the really nice voice he had. Wow, does time fly. Thanks again.

I remember watching Your Hit Parade when I was a teenager. Snooky sounds similar to Gene Autry, but less nasal.

This is from a time when singers had good voices. The pop song, like the movie musical,

is pretty much dead now.

Yup, tempus fugits, and the older I get the

faster it goes.

Great to hear Snooky and the gang again. Tx
