Perry Como Live 1959 - Tomboy

[@jenniferbate9682]

I remember when this was on the tv in 1959. I loved it,. Xx

Yet another example of the live performance being better than the record. Perry's sincere, lovely version shows that the song was much better than I remembered.

I remember this sooo well. Brings back memories of when I was 15 years old listening to a Perry every week. Loved him xx

Fantastic clip. Tomboy has always been one of my favorite PC songs. Never knew that it was written by two fire men. Unbelievable story! Many thanks.

Believe it or bot, I remember that episode! I was in the 6th grade -- we wtched Perry Como eery week --- Saturday Night with Mr. C. as the intro went for the portion where he sang requests. Good memories. Thanks.

Rita Subranni I know this was originally broadcasted in color (at a time when there were only 250,000 color TVs in the US) but the b/w kinescope is the only footage that survives.

How old are you, mam?

This is from his Saturday night show, originally telecast in color (before he moved to Wednesday nights that fall in "PERRY COMO'S KRAFT MUSIC HALL").
