Girls About Town (EP)
''Girls About Town'' is the debut EP by the American rock band The Smithereens. It was released on 31 October 1980 on the band's own D-Tone Records. The EP contains four songs with the word ‘girl‘ in the title, including " Girl Don't Tell Me," a song originally recorded by The Beach Boys. The 7" EP has never been available in any other format, though two of its tracks were included on Smithereens compilation albums: the title track on ''Attack of The Smithereens'' and ''From Jersey It Came! The Smithereens Anthology''; and " Girl Don't Tell Me" on '' Covers''. Background “We had a bunch of songs with ‘girl’ in the title, and "Girls About Town" was the song that everyone thought was our best live song. It was the song that we thought, at the time, had the most commercial potential, so we called the EP ''Girls About Town'' and to round it off, we made it an EP that featured the word ‘girl’ in all four songs.” -Pat DiNizio Track listing All songs written by Pat ...

For Your Pleasure (TV Series)
''For Your Pleasure'' is an American variety television program that was broadcast on NBC from April 15, 1948, until September 10, 1949. First run Kyle MacDonnell starred in the 15-minute unsponsored program, which also featured the Norman Paris Trio, an instrumental combo. They were supplemented by dancing duos (Jack and Jill, April until June 1948, and Blaire and Deane, June until September 1948). The format had MacDonnell in a nightclub visiting with patrons and singing one or two songs. MacDonnell's starring role (her first on television) resulted from an NBC executive's seeing her perform on Broadway in the revue ''Make Mine Manhattan'', which opened in January 1948. John Royal, who was the network's vice-president of new developments, decided that he wanted to audition MacDonnell for TV.
