Alan,

Those really were the shining times. Perhpas you could consider linking one from the greatest Broadway production ever.... Camelot.

Good idea. In my youth, I attended matinee performances of most of the great Broadway shows of the 50s and 60s, so I have a particular fondness for them.

Unlike much of today's "music" the songs of that period had great melodies and lyrics.
