Just watched a Mr Rogers interview about early TV. He said the first time he saw TV was after college and this guy was getting hit with a pie in the face. He says he thought what a waste of a children's program. He was drawn to go into TV but to educate not throw pies. I think you need both. I loved Soupy and am better for it.

Glad to see that I'm not the only one who was looking for this music. Thanks RRaquello for posting the whole piece! It's great!

@BusterTV1 Just wanted to let you know that IT IS the same one. I just got it (LP) from amazon, and the 'seg" they use for sampling on amazon is later in the track, but is the very one. I am so thrilled...my copy was in excellent condition too! I have got to put it on cd. Roxio here I come.
-
@mamojica My pleasure. I remember Soupy using that record several times and even seeing Skitch's band perform the tunes on the Tonight Show.
-
@TGmovier Thank you, thank you, thank you for identifying that tune. It took almost 4 years, but I knew someone in YouTube land would know what it was.

I just ordered it, only one lp left! Hope I can get the Roxio to put it on disc as well! What a great find. I was almost guessing les Brown after Elgart did not pan out!
-
Glad we got that settled....I have wrecked my brain and my music colelction to death...not to mention the great stuff I tried on Amazon and itunes. Sorry BusterTV1, but we both got a 'gift" thanks to TGmovier! I love coming here!

@TGmovier Thanks so much. I just checked it out on Amazon.com that's the song allright. Skitch's version is slightly different than the one used by Soupy. Maybe Wilcox had it out also?
-
@BusterTV1 - The tune is "Night Life" written and arranged by Larry Wilcox and performed by the Skitch Henderson Tonight Show Orchestra on the recording "Skitch Tonight" on the Columbia label , catalog number CL 2367/CS 9167 recorded in 1965 . This was one of the greatest Tonight Show bands (Clark Terry in the trumpet section, Bob Haggart on bass, Bobby Rosengarden on drums)

@gmonet46 HELP! I checked the Les Elgart music on Amazon.com and it's not Trees, Ginger Snap. The sound is there, so, most likey it was Elgart, but does anyone know 100% for sure what the title of the songs is and who did it which is used on ths Corrective Surgery video? Souoy used it alot to close the show also. Thanks.
Yes, I agree. Give me Soupy anytime. TV today is total junk. I'm glad I'm not a child now.

I love that this was our generation's idea of children's television!
