[78-L] Chevy, was Re: Good-bye-Dinah sings the Chevy Song

[bruce78rpm at comcast.net]

Ok here is the Chevy Song plugging the 1958 Chevy. If you want the song just go to the end and hear and see Dinah sing it. The guests on the show were Louis Prima and Keely Smith, Ernie Kovacs and Edie Adams and Dinah's then husband George Montgomery. I believe they are all passed on now except for Keely Smith. Anyway enjoy the Chevy Song once again.

Big Bopper much easier to find on 78 than on 45 up here in the frozen 
northland. Ditto Richie Valens. Roger Peterson, not too many 78s. 

And actually that song has been misunderstood for years..Mr. McLean was really 
trying to get refinanced but was rebuffed by a Mr. Levy.
