Ray Conniff: Ma, He's Making Eyes At Me

[minishygurl]

The singers for my school play "Murdering the Mob" are preforming this!

[ColinEmerald]

I have to sing a little bit of this in the play I'm in, 'Enchanted April.' It's so catchy!

jay is like the fred schnieder of the singers.... i love it!

[sprROINGG]

@futuristfood Jay Meyer was totally irrepressible!  He got the spirit of the Conniff approach down to perfection.

Sweet... thanks for posting. I think Ray always puts his happiest girls at the right far end looking at it from our angle. They always seem to be the ones most into the music.

I wonder if this is the same configuration of the Singers who sing on the "Christmas with Conniff" Christmas album?

[hajune]

Some of them were .Jay Meyer now in his 80's was one. Vangie was not. She was a sexy lady.

Fantastic post. First time I've seen the Conniff singers on video. Song is on his CD Young At Heart, one of the best CDs I've ever bought.

It's SO AWESOME. I sing barbershop and this is sooo catchy!!

[hajune]

Nobody but nobody could arrange this type of music better then Ray Conniff

[Floridacommodore]

Awesome... I have been listening to this for 30 years, and never have actually seen how it is done. thanks!

Floridacommodore: I thought they censored that part!

Seriously, I think they might be lipsynching here. I could be wrong.

[sprROINGG]

@7NTM61Ic No. These television broadcasts were totally live, on-the-fly performances...with the sonic enhancement of reverb. They were well-rehearsed, tight performances by an entire ensemble of top-notch professional studio musicians.

great stuff

Perfect!
