Notes
- Born in Island Pond, Vermont Rudy Vallee was one of the most popular singers of his day. Radio star in the 30s, film comedian in the 40s and 50s, Rudy Vallee turned to Broadway for success during the 60s. “The Rudy Vallee Show” was one of radio’s great sensations, and introduced new talent to its audience. Yale educated Rudy put his own band together, the Connecticut Yankees, which featured him on saxophone. One of the band’s first gigs was at New York’s Heigh-Ho club, where Rudy’s trademark salutation, “Heigh-Ho, everybody!” was born. During World War II, Rudy joined the Coast Guard, where he was conductor of the band.</em>
