Hi, I'm back again with another fun album for you. This 1985 record was put together by the Honeymooners fan club called R.A.L.P.H. (The Royal Association for the Longevity and Preservation of "The Honeymooners"). It compiles some old songs performed by Art Carney (one in character as Ed Norton), Jackie Gleason, and even a Stan Freberg parody. It also has two new songs: "I Want a Wife Like Alice Kramden" and the R.A.L.P.H. theme song "It's Honeymooners Time". Hope you like it!
Here's the track list:
- It's Honeymooner Time - Jesse Goldberg
- Song of the Sewer - Art Carney
- Va Va Va Voom - Art Carney
- Sheesh, What a Grouch - Art Carney
- You're My Greatest Love (Honeymooners Theme) - Jackie Gleason Orchestra
- One of These Days -- Pow! - Jackie Gleason
- Dear Ralph - Jayne and Audrey Meadows
- I Want a Wife Like Alice Kramden - Jack Simmons and the Kramdenettes
- The Honey-Earthers - Stan Freberg
- Melancholy Serenade - Jackie Gleason Orchestra
Wonderful, wonderful. Great stuff. Thank you so much.
ReplyDeleteWow! Nostalgia for Nostalgia! It's hard to believe it's been over 20 years (I think) since the Honeymooners "Lost" episodes were first shown on Cinemax! And those R.A.L.P.H. guy! WOW! (I had an idea of making up T-Shirts that siad "ORIGINAL 39" to see at Honeymooners conventions, but like so many of Ralph's get-rich-quick schemes, nothing materialized...)
ReplyDeleteWould you have "YVONNE DE CARLO SINGS" as a stalute to Ms. YVONNE DE CARLO'S passing?
