  • Originally with Borrah Minevich and his Harmonica Rascals, little JOHNNY PULEO launched his own show group, "Johnny Puleo and his Harmonica Gang" and enjoyed great success for many years.
    Here they are, in all their wild musical and slapstick comedy glory, with host MILTON BERLE on a 1965 episode of Hollywood Palace, (ABC).
    Great fun!

    Johnny Puleo's face was more expressive than his harmonica. Amazing how he put all those emotions across without a word.

    My dad was Victor Pace and played with Johnny and Borrah Minevitch. Was hoping to find some video with him in it. Seeing all these videos and listening to the music I grew up with is heartwarming. Brings back alot of wonderful memories from my childhood.

      My father in law was George Whitcomb. He played with Johnny. I know he was on the Ed Sullivan show a few times, but I'm not sure if he's in this one. I can't really see the faces clearly. I just wondered if your dad knew him.

    Well, I remember as the De Paul student at younger age as I first met Johnny Puleo with his Hatmonica Gang on tour in Pittsburgh, Pa. Johnny Paleo and his Harmonica Gang finally made our audience to laugh a lot. Then the photographer took a photo of Johnny Paleo and me so together. So that I like Hatmonica Gang with Johnny Paelo at best in my recognized memior. Christa D'Auria

    I remember these skits from my childhood. The smallest comic was sometimes Billy Barty, and earlier skits were done by Vaudeville players. Burlesque style humor can still make audiences laugh, despite the PC intolerances now so ubiquitous.

    • @RadioObfuscata
      @RadioObfuscata Před 4 lety +1

      Gee, I wonder if that's because Johnny Puleo was a member of the Harmonica Rascals (not the Harmonica Gang) during the 1940s, and started his Harmonica Gang after the original promoter died. In other words, he took the act that he originated in the first group and continued to perform it with his own group. Funny how the people who know the least feel compelled to talk the most, isn't it?
