she also appeared [as an Italian mother] in Hey Let's Twist with Joey Dee.


 (Armen's real name was Armenuhi Manoogian), so that 
robably indicates some sort of friendship between them. The charming melody 
ounds more Italian than Armenian.

here is a tune written by Ross Bagdasarian (aka David Seville) called "Armen's 
heme." I have it on a British London 78, but below is an image of the U.S. 
iberty version. I never made the connection between Bagdasarian and Armen, but 
hey both had Armenian roots (Armen's real name was Armenuhi Manoogian), so that 
robably indicates some sort of friendship between them. The charming melody 
ounds more Italian than Armenian. I always liked Bagdasarian's non-Chipmunks 
nstrumentals.
