When Second Son was about eight or 10, we went to Disney World (there was a conference of some sort involved). We ended up spending several hours each night at a comedy club, now closed for several years, modeled after a 19th Century Explorers club like the one in Around the World in 80 Days. The whole bit was good campy fun. One of the performers sang this song and a rip-snorting performance it was too.
What particularly sticks in my mind about that trip was this. Second Son wanted to meet “Dusty Chambers,” the maid. The lady playing Dusty Chambers was kind enough to put her costume back on to come out to chat with him in character.

I do love Henry Mancini’s music.

In the mid-50s, Liberace had an afternoon television show. My mother tried to watch it every day.
He was one weird dude, but he could play.
