WARNING / HELP REQUIRED!!

Hi Everyone,
I Just want to warn everyone about a new dvd / cd set of Jim that has been released entitled 'The Gentle Man'.
While the quality of the cd is fine, some parts of the dvd absolutely are not. The black and white footage on the dvd IS of reasonable quality but what spoils the dvd is some colour footage of Jim that is so bad it looks like it was filmed by a cameraman with a very shaky hand.
WHAT I NEED HELP WITH IS THIS:
In the colour film Jim introduces 'Mexican Joe' as "a song we had a hit with last year". So I presume this film is from 1954. Does anyone, particularly Larry, know what show this material is likely to be taken from.
Also, in the colour film Jim also performs a lively song called 'Down In The Carribean'. It is a great little song and Jim performs it well. However, I have a great number of Jim's recordings on all formats including the Bear Family box set but I don't seem to have this recording.
Anyone know if it is available as an audio recording anywhere?.
Anyhow, regarding the quality of some parts of the dvd- you have been warned!.
Adrian Clark
