Now the band opens it up with “In The Mood.” Ray brings out co-host Johnny Desmond and Patty Clark. They all sing “Life Is So Peculiar.” Another Kent commercial.
The show returns with The Castle Sisters doing “Jukebox Saturday Night.” Now a Jello Instant Pudding commercial. The show is back with Patty Clark singing “Chicago.” Ray comes along with a rousing version of “That’s-A-Plenty.” Ray and Johnny talk about a long letter they received from a fan. Ray reads it. It’s from a world war two serviceman and about his encounter with Glenn Miller and the experience of what happened when the band showed up for a date at the air base in London.. They played for three hours. Now Johnny sings “Moonlight Serenade.”
