As to Tommy -- I was thinking Tommy Edwards. As to Monty - I just 
came across a webpage where a guy thinks its Mantovani -- hmm - 
-Manty? They rhyme it with Belafonte.

Given the fact that the song isn't rockabilly and the artists aren't 
either (I don't think that Ella Fitzgerald ever did a Wanda Jackson 
imitation), Mantovani could be the ticket!
