Talk to the Animals – The Lennon Sisters

Ah, they don’t make ’em like this anymore. The Lennon Sisters performing on The Lawrence Welk Show in the late sixties. I particularly like the Hanna Barbera vibes of the arrangement. Talk to the Animals, sung by Rex Harrison, originally appeared in the 1967 film Doctor Dolittle and won a Best Song Oscar, although apparently few people involved with the film could stand it. The Lennon Sisters, meanwhile, are now in their seventies and still rocking the mic.
