[19450william]

song is great - colona is unique. Lovely comedy

[fvrrljr]

Spoof or no spoof it's absolutely GENIUS !!!

clean sense of humor, no vulgarity needed

5 don't have sense of humor nor seen him in movies and cartoons...

tanks for posting

I don't think I've heard this in over 50 years! Geez--it's every bit as goofy as I remembered it to be. Thank you for posting Jerry Colonna.

Does any one remember a song sung by Jerry Colona that started "A Frankfurter is a Frankfurter after All" ?

[NonInflatable]

Very, very funny - thanks for making this available for us to enjoy.

Jerry Colonna was a gem, totally unique.

When we were kids back in the 1960's my uncle Arthur sent a box of old 78s (that's records) well we went thro em & played this & velvet glove - memories thanks for posting this

[thebrujaisbackagain]

[teamcrumb]

He ain't making fun of it, that's how he sings.

[teamcrumb]

Well found! If you can find the velvet glove I'll give you a biscuit. I'm sure my Dad's got it on a 78, but how would I get it on youtube?

[rafhenlow]

I remember that, '6 fingers of the velvet glove, egad!'

[rafhenlow]

Just watched it on 78PUP.

[fairylilac]

Oh I loved this, haven't heard it for years.

[Havago1]

The bit that Gerry does at the end "Come back ebb" was a spoof on/from the film 'Shane' when at the end, young Brandon De Wilde is heard calling "Come back Shane" ... :))
