Another example of early 1950s pop music, this time "Silver and Gold" sung by Perry Como and the Fontane Sisters on a 1952 episode of "The Perry Como Show". A catchy novelty song. If you really need to know, Perry looks uncomfortable because he had just done a really poorly-written plug for the sponsor, one so bad that I refuse to upload it on YouTube (lucky that these embarrassing plugs/ads took up a fairly small amount of the show). If you want to watch the whole episode, which is actually quite good, it can be seen here:

  • Well this is actually pretty interesting.

    Today's pop music is shit

  • I have a few of my facebook friends relying on me to dig out a little variation in music and I hit You tube with 1950`s and this was the first track I played and I love it.

    I was born in 1951 and I think those wonderful harmony's of the time are still there with me in a little corner, waiting to be enjoyed once again and this is a perfect example of the time happy music sung perfectly a joy to see

see all
