Of Dennis Awe, that is. Check out some tidbits from his bio:
He provided organ music for soap operas "Young Doctor Malone", "From These Roots", "Dark Shadows", and game shows "Beat the Clock", and "Who Do You Trust?"
Dennis has shared the stage with many of the great entertainers; Frank Fontaine (Crazy Guggenheim, from the Jackie Gleason Show) Clayton Moore, "The Lone Ranger", Connie Francis, at the New York Copa Cabana, The Inkspots, Bob Crosby and the Bobcats, Ed McMahon and Johnny Carson of The Tonight Show, Vic Tayback, Artie Johnson, JoAnne Castle, Henry Winkler, Red Skelton, Debbie Reynolds. In 1990, Dennis toured and starred as Liberace in "Liberace Lives!" a full two and a half hour musical extravaganza that received rave reviews and standing ovations.
Not only that, he is a comedian!
Here's Mavis' recent AWE-some finds:
"The AWE-tographs are to "Frank and Viola" and "Millie"! I bought those albums in separate places, too. His "Alley Cat" is the Pussy's Pyjamas!"
PS. Got a hankerin' for some organ music? While there's no Dennis Awe, there's still some great stuff to be found at Organ Records Universe.

Too bad we can't go on one of Dennis's cruises-stupid economy!
That is so cool.
Look at Mavis' eyes - she can hardly contain herself!
Personally, I'm concentrating on the fine, fine tunes coming out of Those Darn Accordians, including a bang-up cover of Viva Las Vegas. But Dennis really looks like he'd be good for an amusing Tuesday evening in an expensive motel.
His contact details are right on his website ...!
Oh, ACCORDIANS! Let me find my Dick Contino and Myron Floren records!
