As to this year’s Dean Martin birthday tribute........

Hey pallies, likes this tremendous tribute to our Dino on the week of this birth may have been goin' on for years, but we just discovered it through doin' google blog Dino-searches a couple of days ago.  What we are referrin' to is a three hour audio tribute to our most beloved Dino that will run from June 1-7 at various times of the day and night at "GregBellMedia.com - Old-Time Radio, Modern Audio Shows and More!"

As you will read below Mr. Bell has assembled  a real Dino-fix for Dino-addicts such as us:

"As to this year’s Dean Martin birthday tribute (Born June 7th, 1917 – December 25, 1995) it features two Martin & Lewis Shows, plus Dean and Jerry’s visit to both The Bob Hope Show and Barry Gray’s Scout About Town. And as I shared earlier, it will include some of the now 88 year old Jerry’s loving comments about his radio and film partner. That interview is courtesy of Turner Classic Movies Film Festival held in Hollywood back in April."

All together 180 glorious minutes of deep, pure, and true audio Dino-devotions scheduled over a full week at a variety of times......all in honor of the anniversary of the day of our Dino's entrance onto our planet...as we sez 'round here.....THE DAY THAT COOLNESS CAME TO EARTH.  Oh, how we wishes we had known 'bout this in year's past so we coulda passed this most excellent way of homagin' our Dino on to all youse Dino-philes.
