Two years after this aired I (was in a group that) traded sets with them (we played a set, they played a set, we played another set, they played another set) and shared a dressing trailer-Chicagofest. I got to know them a bit, especially Terry and the keyboard player (different from this one it seems, but I can’t say for sure) and also a frustrated groupie named Thomasina (as in the Disney movie, which is why I remember). Just before going on and opening with “Along Comes Mary, they lit a joint and offered me a hit (I declined). In 1983 they played their sixties hits-or at least mostly their sixties hits-and it wasn’t clear to me if they were aiming for a big-time come-back or not (It didn’t seem polite to ask). Whether they were still in 1983, this show makes it clear they were in 1981, so that’s an old lingering question finally answered.Thanks.

awful song. The songs they recorded in the 1980s were pretty bad and I believe they were all written by outside writers. What a shame, since Kirkman, Yester and Alexander were all great songwriters.

Whenever Mike Douglas had a band on his show, he would ask the band members who they were and where they were from. When The Turtles appeared on his old Philadelphia show back during the 1960s, he also asked each guy how old they were. Lead singer Howard Kaylan replied by asking Mike, “How old are YOU, Mike?” Mr. Douglas declined to answer Howard Kalyan’s question. At least, Mike Douglas refrained from asking the guys in The Association that same rude question. By the way, the guys sounded fantastic on that performance of “Along Comes Mary.”

There are not words to describe the incredible talent and sound of The Association in their prime - and it was a long stretch of "prime". What's left of the band today is still first rate. But Mike Douglas was a consistently clueless ding dong for his entire run.
@kensellers40822 жыл бұрын
I always enjoyed watching “The Mike Douglas Show.” Mr. Douglas had quite a few rock & roll bands on his show. He also had this little boy named Mason Reese, who did a ton of tv commercials during the 1970s, on his Philadelphia-based show very frequently. I once saw Mason Reese walking with crutches near Carnegie Hall years later, but I digress. However, I remember when Mike Douglas complained about the over-commercialization of Christmas, with people trying to make a buck during the Yuletide season. So, when Mr. Douglas (born Michael Delaney Dodd) recorded a song entitled, “Christmas is the Birthday of the Baby, Jesus,” or some such title, he was asked what he would do with the profits from the song, and Mr. Douglas had to acknowledge that HE was keeping them for himself. Oh, well....
