These old groups, bands and singers were the very best of all our entertainers of all time. Just can't be beat! Everything that followed was just some kind of copycat routine...

Kay Kyser was a high school football coach before he got into the music biz. As noted before he quit the music biz to become a Christian Science practictioner. He didn't wish to discuss his big band days , and said he was ashamed of his past. Go figure.. All the happiness he brought to others and he was ashamed.
