#01) Bleyer, Archie, Orchestra and Chorus: The Naughty Lady of Shady Lane
(1955) [17] {-}
[Only the winning team identified the correct artist on this one. 10 of the
12 teams that identified the title thought this was by The Ames Brothers,
who charted first and higher (#3) with their version. We expected to get some
wrong answers for the artist, but I had expected more teams to identify the
correct artist. The same portion of the song by The Ames Brothers does sound
similar, but the two version can be distinguished when played side-by-side
with the clip from this quiz.]
