This month's swinging show features segments on two Italian-American performers: Jerry Colonna, the bug-eyed, big-mustached actor and trombonist who became a novelty act supporting Bob Hope; and Chuck Mangione, the Rochester born composer and musician who is also the nephew of the acclaimed author Jerre Mangione, whose works will be discussed. Of course, the usual cool paisans will also figure into the giambotte.
