For the past week I've been tuning into the jazz podcast archive from F.L. member "Chas". I enjoy them quite a bit, but have found out that he's going to stop doing them once he moves to Australia. I believe he posted a topic about moving on here as well.

Hopefully the archive stays around for a while. There's one more show coming up thursday though before it's over.
Here's the link to the archive page....

Celluloid Heroes
Ray Davis

Everybody’s a dreamer and everybody’s a star,
And everybody’s in movies, it doesn’t matter who
you are.
There are stars in every city,
In every house and on every street,
And if you walk down hollywood boulevard
Their names are written in concrete!

Don’t step on greta garbo as you walk down the
boulevard,
She looks so weak and fragile that’s why she
tried to be so hard
But they turned her into a princess
And they sat her on a throne,
But she turned her back on stardom,
Because she wanted to be alone.

You can see all the stars as you walk down
hollywood boulevard,
Some that you recognise, some that you’ve hardly
even heard of,
People who worked and suffered and struggled for
fame,
Some who succeeded and some who suffered in
vain.
Rudolph valentino, looks very much alive,
And he looks up ladies’ dresses as they sadly
pass him by.
Avoid stepping on bela lugosi
’cos he’s liable to turn and bite,
But stand close by bette davis
Because hers was such a lonely life.
If you covered him with garbage,
George sanders would still have style,
And if you stamped on mickey rooney
He would still turn round and smile,
But please don’t tread on dearest marilyn
’cos she’s not very tough,
She should have been made of iron or steel,
But she was only made of flesh and blood.

You can see all the stars as you walk down
hollywood boulevard,
Some that you recognise, some that you’ve hardly
even heard of.
People who worked and suffered and struggled for
fame,
Some who succeeded and some who suffered in
vain.

Everybody’s a dreamer and everybody’s a star
And everybody’s in show biz, it doesn’t matter
who you are.

And those who are successful,
Be always on your guard,
Success walks hand in hand with failure
Along hollywood boulevard.

I wish my life was a non-stop hollywood movie
show,
A fantasy world of celluloid villains and
heroes,
Because celluloid heroes never feel any pain
And celluloid heroes never really die.

You can see all the stars as you walk along
hollywood boulevard,
Some that you recognise, some that you’ve hardly
even heard of,
People who worked and suffered and struggled for
fame,
Some who succeeded and some who suffered in
vain.

Oh celluloid heroes never feel any pain
Oh celluloid heroes never really die.

I wish my life was a non-stop hollywood movie
show,
A fantasy world of celluloid villains and
heroes,
Because celluloid heroes never feel any pain
And celluloid heroes never really die.

Connie Francis (1958)
Discouraged by the less-than-stellar success of her first records on the MGM label, Connie was about to quit music to study medicine and this was to be her last recording session. However, her father suggested this 1923 Snyder, Kalmar & Ruby composition as something older folks also would relate to and this song became her first hit.
