Mchale's Navy .....papa oom mow mow

Now that is hysterical!

A couple years ago, I rented the complete DVD set of all the McHale's Navy episodes from NETFLIX.

Loved that show.

Tim Conway was so funny.......

Ah yes, back in the days of three to four total TV channels. This pretty much meant anything on TV had a lot of talent behind it.

The cast of McHale's Navy was truly all-star in talent. I loved those shows!

Radioman ....Willy Moss

Radioman ....Willy Moss

Who's real name is John Wright but went by Bobby Wright is the son of the Country Music Duo Johnny Wright and Kitty Wells.

Johnny Wright is recently noted for ......."Hello Vietnam"

So ...Bobby Wright ...aka Willy Moss, has some music background and is the one singing the falsetto lead in the back.

I've been trying to figure out if he just made up those lyrics for the blopper.......or if that is a song from the period he is imitating........???

I don't recognize it........but every doo wop song had a ..."I love you baby" ...or "baby please don't go".....
 
Ahhhhhhh Childhood memories...What a great show...

You are so correct Ken..back in the day of three network and one UHF sometimes comming in the shows were full of talent...
 
Those were the days except when the "sun spots" arrived and screwed things up for a week or so...

Days long gone...
 
A classic "after school" show.

Our local classic TV station runs George Burns,Jack Benny, Phil Silvers, and McHale's Navy back to back in the early hours of the morning. Sometimes it's just worth losing sleep to see them!
 
Baby Please don't Go.........

Baby please don't go.................

This must be a phase or emotion suffered through out the history of mankind................

However, recorded music history looks to date back to Big Joe Williams.......a very early blues 1935
