Jed Clampett On The Doubleneck Guitar



Speaking of CBS (Country Broadcasting System) here's an insane clip I've been meaning to put up ever since my pal Jerry hipped me to it a day or so ago. That's some kind of stringbending style Jed's got on that doubleneck Danelectro! Someone sign him up for Deke Dickerson's Guitar Geek Festival!

Frank Sutton On His Day Off



What happens when Frank Sutton drops by the LA Dodgers locker room? He makes a beeline for pitcher Claude Osteen (nickname: Gomer) and berates him for his stupidity and knuckleheadededness. He couldn't help himself, I guess.

More on the late great Frank Sutton over here on WFMU's Beware Of The Blog.

Ghost Riders In The Sky, Lawrence Welk Style



This 1961 Lawrence Welk Show clip might just comprise the coolest two minutes in the show's history. Guitarist Neil LeVang completely nails Ghost Riders In The Sky, along with considerable help and atmospherics from the entire LW Orchestra.

Hawaii Five Oh No!


CBS has announced that they've finally cleared all the legal hurdles and are moving forward with plans to revive Hawaii Five-O.

Will it be worthwhile? Are remade television series (or feature films, for that matter) ever very exciting? I'm dubious. If you're hungering for the originals, CBS has posted quite a few full-length episodes from the show's first 2 seasons.

Below is a pretty fascinating clip, showing the retooled open from a 1990s attempt to get the show back on the air. Believe it or not, Garey Busey was to star in the Steve McGarrett role.
