Down Memory Lane

Thanks to reader Greg Askins for passing along this link to a witty BBC Four documentary, The Joy of Easy Listening. In this segment, the faux-mariachi sounds of Herb Alpert pave the highway to Las Vegas, where Sixties headliner Engelbert Humperdinck reigns at the Riviera (and masters a dead-on Dean Martin impersonation). Stick around for the Austin Powers shout-out and Jim Morrison turned into the equivalent of Matt Goss.
