Davy Jones Gives a Haircut

Using my wife's computer right now and I had to post this as I had not seen it before and thought any Davy or Monkees fans would like to see it.

See more funny videos and TBT at Todays Big Thing.

Watch this drummer go crazy. It is great.

White Christmas Cartoon

I love this cartoon. Very funny.

Human Bomb Music Video

For comic book fans here is a music video I created after I came across this homemade song about the Quality/DC comics character the Human Bomb.

Davy Gets Blown Away

I just saw this on youtube and thought it was funny.

For A Friend by The Bugaloos

I know that The Archies had a hit from their TV show and Jack Wild did well thanks in part to his Saturday morning show H.R. Puffnstuf. It was years later that I heard the Bannana Splits had one in England. Now I find that the Bugaloos also had one. It too must have been a hit in Europe because I never heard of it. Cna't fault the songwriters. The song is a good pure pop 70's tune and Hirshhorn and Kasha had a long list of popular tunes to their credit by that time.

The best song the Brady Bunch ever recorded

Ok it isn't the Brady Bunch but the animater had to have them in mind when he did this video.

Rocky Burnette "Tired of Toein' the Line"

Here is an early 80's rock-a-billy hit by Rocky Burnette. A great song called "Tired of Toein' the Line."

Suzi Quatro "Stumblin' In"

Remember this song? This is probably the only hit Suzi had. At least it's the only one I remember. This came around the same time as her appearances on Happy Days. Her future looked bright but then she dropped off the radar. However, I recently found her site and you can see it too if you click here to find out more.
This is from an episode of a show that she and Chris Norman did on a TV show in Europe. They seem to really be enjoying themselves. The crazy thing is that this showed up on youtube.com when I was really searching for the cartoon show the Hillbilly Bears. Maybe they thought Chris Norman looked like Pa Rugg from that show.

Len Mink

I remember when local programming was more then just the news. During the day and some evenings even local stations had their own stable of talent they could build shows around. They had talk shows, variety shows and those who would host movies. In Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky the Nick Clooney Show was a local variety show that was first on WCPO and later WKRC. Years after it was canceled the Mr. Clooney would be back on at WKRC as a news anchor. On his variety show he had talents like Len Mink. He was a local singer who was very popular. This youtube.com clip is from Mr. Mink's last appearance on the show when it was on WCPO. Later, when he becaome a Christian Mr. Mink went on to a Christian music ministry.

The Beach Boys Christmas Day

Here is one of my favorite Christmas songs. Christmas Day by the Beach Boys. A rare song where Alan sings lead.

Happy 4th of July

I wish everyone who comes to this site a Happy and Safe 4th of July. Here are two videos I hope you enjoy. The first is of the Lee Greenwood song "God Bless the USA". The second is what they called in 1976 a Bicentennial Minute. On CBS between 1975 and 1976 after some of their programs they would air them with celebrities narrating them. This one had Jessica Tandy. Most of you may remember her as Miss. Daisy from the movie version of "Driving Miss. Daisy". Have a great holiday.

Monkees Pleasant Valley Sunday

Just saw this video on YouTube.com. In the more section it says that The Girl I Knew Somewhere was the original song for this segment. Others in repeats and syndication replaced it. Steam Engine from the CBS Saturday mornings is the one I remember. Here is the rare verson with Pleasant Valley Sunday.

Monkees Tribute to Julie Newmar Video for Valentines Day

Sometime ago I did a survey of what your favorite love song was from the Monkees. I have tried to figure out what to do with the information. In honor of Valentine's Day here is a Monkees tribute video for it.

Live Beatles in concert in 1963

Here is a news reel clip from 1963 with the Beatles preforming 2 songs live in concert in Manchester, England. It also shows what happened behind the scenes before the concert.

Happy Birthday Elvis

I can't let this day go by without saying Happy Birthday to Elvis the true King of Rock and Roll. Without him Rock and Roll wouldn't have been the same. Perhaps his best known song that is known by even people who aren't Elvis fans is "Hound Dog." In honor of his birthday here is John Lennon, Jerry Lee Lewis, Bon Jovi and Elvis himself singing his most famous song.



Now here is Elvis from his live appearance on the Milton Berle show on June 5th 1956.

The Beach Boys "Karen"

Friday I showed you a video of the Beach Boys and Annette singing the title song to the movie "The Monkey's Uncle." Today we have a video of them singing the title to a short lived 60's sit-com called "Karen."

The Beach Boys and Annette

I love Disney movies and I nearly forgot that the Beach Boys were in a Disney movie. Here they sing the theme to "The Monkey's Uncle" with Annette singing lead.
