Radio and television mirror (July-Dec 1948)

S^ffm^ ^tA &tfk*j$uyb I New, non-coloring 'Vaseline' Eyebrow-Eyelash Cream helps smooth unruly brows — gives them a clean, serene line. Brush lashes up and out with this wonderful new cream — see how lustrous, how long they seem, without "made-up look." For a dewy, luminous, dreamyeyed look, add a subtle, satiny touch of fragrant EyebrowEyelash Cream to eyelids. 18 Spike Jones' latest disc, like all the others, has a pair of comical labels. DANCING OR LISTENING BUDDY CLARK (Columbia) — Riding higher than ever after teaming with Doris Day for a hit "Love Somebody," Buddy comes through again with a fine job on a truly beautiful ballad, "Where the Flamingoes Fly." Mitchell Ayres' background consists of trumpet, clarinet, flute and strings. The reverse side is "On The Waterfall." ALBERT AMMONS (Mercury) — This platter is proof that boogie-woogie wasn't a fad. Though the eight-to-the-bar craze is not what it used to be, Albert Amnions' versions of "Bear Den Boogie" and "Tuxedo Boogie" will give you much pleasure. GENE KRUPA (Columbia)— Much like the Goodman Trio of old, this is called the Gene Krupa Jazz Trio. Geney, of the light brown drumsticks, excels on "Body and Soul" and "Stompin' At The Savoy." CHUBBY JACKSON (MGM)— To the uninitiated, Chubby plays bass, wears a beard and is known as the "monster." On this platter, "L'Ana" is be-bopish in style, while the frivolous bit on the reverse is titled — "The Happy Monster." Both are fine jazz. BARCLAY ALLEN (Capitol)— Another Freddy Martin graduate, Mr. Allen maintains the style he used so successfully when with the Martin band. Backed by a rhythm section, he plays "It Began In Havana" and "Nola." TOMMY DORSEY (RCA Victor)— This disc is one of the best TD has made in quite some time. We prefer "Let Me Call You Sweetheart" with a Stuart Foster and chorus vocal. You may prefer listening to Gordon Polk sing "Walk It Off." RAY BAUDUC (Capitol) — If you are not familiar with the Dixieland or two-beat school of jazz, then get to hear this one. If you are familiar with the style, then the best recommendation for this record is the following list of musicians who made the disc with Ray: Eddie Miller, Nate Kazebier, Matty Matlock, Brad Gowans, Stan Wrightsman, Nappy Lamare and Morty Corb. JOHNNY DESMOND (MGM)— A recent addition to this label, Johnny makes an auspicious debut with "P. S. I Love You" and "I Wonder Where My Baby Is Tonight." The former, you are right, is the oldie that you remember way back when . SPIKE JONES (RCA Victor) — Your favorite disc-jockey has probably worn out three records playing this one, by this time you've heard it and laughed with it many a time, but it's almost as much fun buying a Spike Jones record just to read the label as there is in listening. This label says that "I'm Getting Sentimental Over You" has a vocal refrain by "The Barefooted Pennsylvanians; credits: Sir Frederick Gas, Dick Morgan and George Rock." "I Kiss Your Hand Madame," insists that the vocal is by Paul Judson and the Ben Ghost Singers. ALBUM ARTISTRY AMBROSE HORS D'OEUVRES (London)— Bert Ambrose had to go to England many years ago before the American public began to realize his talents. This album contains a collection of eight of the most famous and most admired Ambrose selections. You'll particularly like the title tune and "B'Wanga." ANDRE PREVIN AT THE PIANO (RCA Victor)— The 19-year-old Frenchman, who is writing musical scores for Hollywood films, is one of the very best piano technicians around. This set contains such fine songs as "But Not For Me," "Mad About The Boy," "Just One Of Those Things," and "Should I." FACING the MUSIC
