Skidoo

What do you get when you make a counterculture film with Jackie Gleason, Carol Channing, Groucho Marx, Frankie Avalon and Mickey Rooney?

An empty theater of course, but somebody thought Skidoo (1968) was a good idea.....

Complete with a Harry Nilsson soundtrack......

Here's Jackie Gleason on an acid trip.....

Carlton The Doorman

If you watched the classic '70s sitcom Rhoda, you will no doubt remember Carlton The Doorman (the heard-but-never-seen doorman to Rhoda's apartment building.)

The voice of Carlton the Doorman was the late Lorenzo Music.

You might better recognize his voice as the original voice of Garfield.

I found this record a long time ago. I've played this before to other people in the apartment building I managed and they all said this song reminds them of ME!

"Who Is It?" Carlton The Doorman (1975)

You Could Win......

Released as a Eva-Tone soundsheet promo from McDonalds in 1988 (at that unfortunate time when people were discarding their vinyl and turntables en masse for crappier sounding, overpriced CDs), this sweepstakes promo was one of the worst ever.

This record didn't win. And it's unbearable to hear again after one listen......

Robo Jesus

All Hail The Saviour Of Computer Geeks Everywhere. It was programmed with scalable compatibility and simplicity, yet It was decommissioned on the UNIVAC mainframe for our parsing errors......

(And yes, it's a REAL TOY from Japan)
