Guy Lombardo - "New Year's Eve with Guy Lombardo and His Royal Canadians" (1973) - MCA Records
Hello Friends,
Holy crapola! Can you believe its New Year's Eve already?
Seems like just yesterday we got rid of our 2016 New Year's hangover!
Well tonight we're counting down to midnight with the immortal Guy Lombardo, Mr. New Year's Eve himself.
This, undoubtedly, is one of our favorite drinking records of all time! The record player is cranked and the high balls be flowing!
This record has it all! Of course, there's Auld Lang Syne. But there's also fun, upbeat versions of classic dance hall hits: "The Music Goes Round & Round", "Bye Bye Blues", "Beer Barrel Polka", "When You're Smiling", "Bill Bailey" and the super-creepy, "I Want A Girl (Just Like The Girl Who Married Dear Old Dad)"! YECH!
But the last track is one of the greatest, end-of-the night drinking ballads, "Show Me The Way To Go Home". It's the ultimate You don't have to go home, but you can't stay here exit music:
Show Me The Way To Go Home
I'm tired and I want to go to bed
I had a little drink about an hour ago
And it's gone right to my head
Wherever I may roam
On land or sea or foam
You can always hear me singing this song
Show Me The Way To Go
Show Me The Way To Go
Show Me The Way To Go Home....
HAPPY NEW YEARS FRIENDS!
