If you are old enough, I hope you enjoyed this bit of nostalgia. I certainly am.
How about those cool jackets!!

I'm old enough alright & I remember them. But I never really listened to them;it was only because my folks were the ones in charge of picking the station. Les Brown was never Country,so I didn't listen.

Oh yes I am old enough, remember Les Brown well. I thought it was interesting that he leads the band facing the camera, not the band. I know that they are probably so well rehearsed that they don't need anyone to actually lead at all. Thanks for the memories--- Bob Hope

Yes, many of the videos of the big band era had the leader facing the audience.
Showmanship?

One of my all time favorites. He was a real cool dude. Bob Hope knew what he was doing when he picked him for his tours. “Thanks for the memories” Mark.
