MP3 of the Day

On this day in 1961, the sitcom I Love Lucy aired its last episode. The show, created by Lucille Ball and her husband Desi Arnaz, ran for 10 years. Ball had insisted that Arnaz be cast as her husband on the show despite the fact that network executives insisted no one would believe a white American actress would be married to a Cuban bandleader. Desi and Lucy filmed a pilot before a live audience to convince network executives that audiences responded well to their act, and CBS agreed to cast Desi for the show. Today we have the song All The Love In The World by THE SMITTENS from their new album The Coolest Thing About Love.
