The TV quiz show phenomenon “The $64,000 Question” was the #1-rated program for the 1955-56 season, and its musical director was veteran conductor-arranger Norman Leyden. He and future Tony award winning lyricist Fred Ebb came up with this clever musical tribute to the show, utilizing the melody of the program theme and weaving in the various catch phrases used weekly by host Hal March. The original single was issued on RCA Victor 6476 - (Love Is) The $64,000 Question (Fred Ebb-Norman Leyden) by Tony Travis, orchestra & chorus conducted by Joe Reisman
