On the May 11, 1965 TV broadcast of The Telephone Hour, Hoagy Carmichael hosted a Musical Tour of Tin Pan Alley.

Cohan's "Give My Regards To Broadway," the remarkable Leslie Ugghams singing "Bill," Bill Hayes crooning Rudy Valee's "Vagabond Lover," Carol Lawrence's lovely rendition of "Love Me Or Leave Me," and Gordon's timeless rendition of Bing Crosby's "The Blue Of The Night." 5:08 in length.
