Saturday Night Music--"Merry Minuet"By borges, Section Saturday Night Music
THE MERRY MINUET::: The Music "The Merry Minuet" was written in 1958 by Sheldon Harnick during the cold war. After listening to the song you might think the lyrics were written today. The Kingston Trio recorded the song at the Hungry I in 1958 and it was released on Jan. 5, 1959. That's forty-seven years ago and today nobody likes anybody very much.
The pick tonight is Bud & Travis performing the song on the Playboy's Penthouse TV program, hosted by Hugh Hefner. Because much of B&T's patter comes directly from the live Santa Monica "In Concert" LP of March 1960, I am guessing this appearance is from 1960 or 1961.[from YouTube notes]
