Al Jolson opened the show with an "oldie" he wanted to sound like a "newie," known to many from Jolson Sings Again, "After You've Gone." That the show was transcribed to tape for the first time was alluded to in the first segment jokes, which also deal with Jolson's wealth and a few other running topics.

Returning to the original format, kind of, Oscar Levant was up next, with Chopin's Revolutionary Etude.

With an introduction by Jolson, himself, Ken Carpenter next took the spotlight in honor of Velveeta.

Starting off with a song, Jimmy Durante made a big entrance after the commercial, with new twists to old jokes. After jokes about Durante's education, and both Al and Jimmy tripping on the big words, Durante professes to psychoanalyze Jolson.

Somehow, in the course of the bit, Jolie manages to get in two songs by George M. Cohan, "I Was Born In Virginia," and "Mary Is A Grand Old Name."

Of course, the two have to join in duet. Sit back and enjoy Al and Jimmy with "The Song's Gotta Come From The Heart," "Parlez Moi D'Amour," "Otchi Tchorniya (Dark Eyes)," and "Chidabee, Chidabee, Chidabee." Trust me, this is a special sequence.

Next up, Ken Carpenter waxing poetic about lenten Velveeta once more.

Al Jolson ended the show with a song he wrote that was "so new, I haven't been sued yet," written with the late Saul Chaplin whose name is on so many Jolson tunes, "You'll Always Be Beautiful."
