  • Dig Sammy's bling! The original gangsta? He's wearing Elvis' favorite colors! Mama Cass is sporting a wild dress (tent?). They change the lyrics to mention R&B/Black artists. Say it loud...!

    I miss the days when talent mattered, not appearance. We miss a lot of great artists today because to the sheep, appearance matters more.

      So much turmoil and change. But, people stood together to protest and pull out of Vietnam, disband racist policies, and marched together. Lots of bad things happened too, but I remember neighbors helping each other with what little they had

    Interesting comment he made about "believing in it", something he always did, so very well. I recall him on a special--not sure looking back what it was for, but it WAS about people who accomplished something special. He sang a song about achievement--then filed off the stage quickly. It was so clear, that he KNEW it wasn't about him, about his performance; and so he quickly delivered the important message--the message, then left. It was so powerful, not about him at all and he knew that, conveyed it well. Miss that guy

      Actually, there were more sizes available to women than today. and, the clothes were better made. And, those types of dresses were called "tents" which is better than "mu mu". How do I know? I was 14 when this was aired.

    This has everything -- live, 2 people who can sing, and at least 1 can harmonize. Ad lib. Seem to know most of the words (don't see them looking intently at cue-cards. And a heavy woman doesn't (including Aretha in her heavy years) come across well not matter what she wears but there's no reason to call her caftan a tent. Caftans were HOT back then.
