What's Opera Doc?

Hey stranger! It's been a long long time.

I have a lot to share...

Let's start with a swingin' take on "Habanera" from the opera CARMEN.

It's by the vocal group THE CREW CUTS (best known for their version of SH-BOOM.)

Check out their fun rendition on itunes called CARMEN'S BOOGIE.

Here's Liberace's take on the boogie version. Careful! He's flirtin' with the camera.

Diamonds are a girl's best friend...

LIBERACE and CAROL CHANNING...  2 performers that could never be accused of "needing just a bit more stage presence."

Here is a very amusing sketch from last weekend's SNL that paid a little homage to both of them. 

Here is Carol on Sesame Street.

Here she is having a little "girl/pig-talk."

Here's a man who's no stranger to diamonds...

This video intro to a Liberace concert cracks me up!

I really think there needs to be a Carol Channing and/or Liberace resurgance. Remix album anyone??  There may be a possible Liberace biopic in the works starring Michael Douglas directed by Steven Soderbergh.
