Nat King Cole NBC Show -3-
Julius La Rosa sings on The Nat King Cole Show aired September 3, 1957. Peggy Lee sings "Don't Get Around Much Anymore".
La Rosa had finished high school and joined the Navy. In the last nine months he sang with the United States Navy Band in Washington D.C. and was "discovered" by Arthur Godfrey, a leading television entertainer of the day, who said, "Young man, when you get out, come see me. You've got a job."
From November 19, 1951 to October 19, 1953, 23 months to the day, Julius La Rosa was a member of the immensely popular CBS TV series "Arthur Godfrey and his Friends" It was a variety hour centered around Godfrey and his "friends" including Frank Parker, Tony Marvin, Julius LaRosa, Haleloke, Marion Marlowe, the McGuire Sisters and bandleader Archie Bleyer.
Godfrey's orchestra leader, Archie Bleyer, formed CADENCE RECORDS in late 1952, primarily to record La Rosa. Bleyer's orchestra would back him on record as well as on television performances. Julius LaRosa's first recording, and Cadence Records first single release, was "Anywhere I Wander." It shot immediately into the national top-30. La Rosa followed this with "My Lady Loves To Dance," which was a moderate success.
The third release was a golden charm. In 1953, he recorded "Eh, Cumpari." This novelty song was a run-away hit, reaching number two. Julius La Rosa won an award for best new male vocalist for 1953. Followed by "Domani," another hit song for La Rosa and Cadence Records. He had done well for Cadence Records. In fact, he was their only singer that first year.
La Rosa moved to RCA Records, hoping to get a bit of the rock audience.
