Starring Ida Lupino as Dr Cassandra Spellcraft Starring Howard Duff as Cabala Written by Stanley Ralph Ross. Directed by Sam Strangis. Criminal Dr. Cassandra (Ida Lupino) and her accomplice, Cabala (Howard Duff), are capable of camouflaging themselves so they appear invisible. Batman, Robin and Batgirl attempt to stop them from stealing the Mope Diamond at Spiffany's Jewelry Salon, but the doctor's Alvino-ray gun flattens the heroes paper-thin.
Musical sequence from the great "Tutti Frutti Ice Cream" episode of Ozu---I mean---"Ozzie and Harriet." (And if you listen VERY carefully, you'll probably detect the pedal steel guitar artistry of Alvino Rey.)

2) Guitar Country - flip of 3. with Chet Atkins.
3) Waiting For the Evening Train - 1963 RCA single.Anita Kerr and her Singers were used as backup on the Decca label from 1951 to 1960. From 1960 to 1966 it was tha RCA label and the heyday of the Nashville Sound, of which they were an integral part. Here they numbered four and were named The Anita Kerr Quartet. Later they moved to other labels like Dot. In 1960 the quartet recorded some singles on the University label, using the name The Little Dippers for contract reasons. They had a hit with a vocal of "Forever". But the label apparently used a different quartet for touring shows and for the record cover. And apparently before they finished on Decca they rerecorded Forever there for an album under their own name. If so, that would be the LP "For You, For Me, Forevermore".
Pete Drake later made an instrumental hit of Forever, probably using the good old AK Quartet as backup there too.
