I wonder, what film or documentary that footage of the Martin Denny group playing live (beginning at 7:30) is originally from? It's NOT from "Hawaii Calls". Does anyone have an idea? Very much appreciated!

Mo, it's a TV show hosted by singer Dinah Shore:

"The Dinah Shore Chevy Show ran through the 1960–1961 season, after which Chevrolet dropped sponsorship, and Shore hosted a series of monthly broadcasts sponsored by The American Dairy Association and Green Stamps. Simply called "The Dinah Shore Show", Dinah's guests included Nat "King" Cole, Bing Crosby, Jack Lemmon, and a young Barbra Streisand. Over twelve seasons, from 1951 to 1963, Shore made 125 hour-long programs and 444 fifteen-minute shows. She always ended her televised programs by throwing an enthusiastic kiss directly to the cameras (and viewers) and exclaiming "MWAH!" to the audience."
