This might be close: on this website http://www.huxrecords.com/cdsales15.htm
there's a link to play a bit of what they've got titled as "Morse Code
Medley" by
the Alberts but is clearly "Morse Code Melody" when the voice comes in.
For those that can't get there, the site is selling a CD titled "British
Rubbish"
featuring classics by Spike Milligan, Peter Sellers, the Bonzo Dog Doo Dah
Band,
and others. Gotta be a top ten album! Wish I had a piece of that action, but
I've got
no financial interest in Hux Records. Darn.  I checked the NPR site too but
they
apparently don't want to take credit for this one.
Cheers,

Caught the following on NPR Saturday about 1220 local time.  Car radio set
to local NPR station and I don't know which program was playing at the time.
I only caught a fragment of each piece below.
Can anybody identify either or both?

Announcer said that Morse code was no longer in commercial use, but still
used by "some ham radio operators."  He then introduced a novelty tune with
title something like 'Morse Code Melody" for orchestra and single voice.
