Friend Of Jim Backus

Female actress / singer who performed alongside Jim Backus on the oft-compiled A side of the Delicious! single (1958). Possible identities: - Henny Backus (1911-2004, born Henrietta Kaye) - Hermione Gingold (1897-1987, born Hermione Ferdinanda Gingold) - Jane Webb (1925-2010) - Kay Connell (an actress signed to ABC, allegedly, who may or may not be Henrietta Kaye aka Henny Backus) - Lenore Kingston (1913-1993, born Eleanor L. Bourgeotte) - Nita Talbot (°1930, born Anita Sokol) - Phyllis Diller (1917-2012, born Phyllis Ada Driver) - which was ruled out by Dr. Demento - "a lady truck driver" (that's what Jim Backus told Lily Tomlin in 1970). Note: apparently Delicious! (The Laughing Song) is based on [m1208659] (1956).
