At the time this was filmed (1961), Jack WAS staging his show before a live audience, at Desilu; in his previous 1953-59 filmed episodes, those were filmed without an audience (at McCadden [General Service Studios] and Revue), and a laugh track was used. However, Benny eventually insisted whether he was performing on film, tape or "live", he wanted a live audience. In 1962, the filmed episodes moved production to Universal.
i was brought up on music like this, my parents and aunts uncles and grandparents love to sing these songs and its so wow to actually hear and see the singers themselves
Uwielbiam grupy wokalne począwszy od jazzujących braci Mills po gospelowy Golden Gate Quartet. Widze że jednak nie jestem jedynym Polakiem który słucha taką muzykę, coraz więcej nas spotykam ;]
These guys were incredible.
