I was young at the time and they both seemed strange to me. Well, it wasn’t no _Mighty Wind_, was it, **TV time**? But then, for its time I guess it was okay. I have always liked the song “Abilene”, by George Hamilton IV, and it brought back fond memories, but all the bona-fide actors acted like they were on the old late 60’s _Batman_ series! And how about that one guitar that looked like it had horns? I think my **DopeStock4** buddies would either turn and run or laughed their asses off, if I came on with that monstrosity. Hell, it’s probably worth thousands today! :rolleyes: Nice seeing Mr. Cash in an early role, however. He had presence even then… Q ---

Great show! I was a survivor of the Great Folk Music Scare and used to run home every Saturday night to watch it. And Jack Linkletter was so cool! I mean, Jack Linkletter was so awful! Never heard of the movie, though. Oooh! Judy Henske! I still have a crush on her. ---
