Description: Here's our Part 2 of a portion of a special, All-Star Salute to Mother's Day, hosted by Ed McMahon and Jayne Kennedy, that aired on WMAQ Channel 5. This part features Bobby Vinton. Includes:

Ed starting off with showing off various American foods as part of the Mother's Day salute, including hamburgers, hot dogs, apple pie, and...kielbasa, leading into an appearance by Bobby Vinton. Before he starts off his number, he introduces his mother Dorothy to the assembled audience, then goes off on a sprightly rendition of "Mama Don't Allow" (with Bobby soloing on clarinet, drums and trumpet at various parts).
