The Mike Douglas Show with guests Jan Peerce, Aaron Williams, Dr. Joyce Brothers and Sonny and Cher (1969)
Never heard of Aaron Williams before, but that's a nice act. A wonderful example of a young cat using a chittlin' circuit tradition with a hip attitude and social conscience to cross over to the mass audience as could only happen in the late '60s to early '70s. Those were the days. Thanks for that.
Love seeing these old episodes of Mike Douglas's tv shows, back in the Philadelphia taping days.
ReplyDeleteOn the weekends, the performance area was used for a kids quiz show called "Challenge".
I know this since I was on the show back in 1974 (retired 4 time champion I might add)
