“Blue Suede Shoes” by Carl Perkins (1932-1998) in the middle panel in case anyone’s stumped. Anyway, Andy should stop being an alcoholic if it makes him 20 years older.
Those lyrics written down made me remember the very funny and talented Steve Allen on the Tonight Show doing a recurring bit where he would read song lyrics in a conversational tone. Freakin’ hilarious!
I just remembered that back in the 70s I had a pair of blue suede cowboy boots. Can’t remember what happened to them. A shame, really. Bet they’d get me on the Antique Road Show if I still had them.

@SandfanI think Steve Allen’s greatest accomplishment might be just how much he influenced David Letterman. (I remember an interview Steve Allen did: “To David’s great credit, he gives great credit.” To him, in other words.) Steve Allen also wrote a lot of books, including some about comedians that were very incisive in their analysis. Sadly, I’ve only seen scattered clips of some of his more outrageous stunts from his TV appearances. (Yes, and Dave “borrowed” more than a few: like the Alka-Seltzer suit from Steve’s tea bag suit.) I’d love to have them on video like I have a lot of other old-timers.

I may have gotten No.3 turned on to the music of my generation. I used to send her videos (a couple of years ago) of various old-time performers, including Sinatra, The Ink Spots, Nat King Cole and others.

There’s nothing good about beer.

Beer, btw is what amateurs drink. Wine is what showoffs drink. Now, bourbon and blood is what detectives drink!

Never “Nat Cole” etc.
