Wow! Just wow! I had spent hours on youtube over a period of days and weeks looking for this video to reminisce and couldn't find it. Thanks so much!!!!

I remember this from 1972. I was 10 saw it on tv

Wow. Wow! I remember this commercial from back in the day (Chicago, early '70s, channel 32) with great clarity, the brief song he plays @0:39 in particular. I never thought I'd see it again. This is one I've wondered about and been in search of for _years_ . I'm nearly in (internet) shock. Incidentally, I never realized that this was Kenny R. I just thought it was some random hippie dude. Again: wow. Great find!

You did good Garth. I've often used that line, "Hi, I'm Kenny Rogers, and I feel like singing a sad song for all those guitars gathering dust in the closets." Great to hear and see this once again.

Very cool to see this again after what, 50 years? I remember it like it was yesterday. Thanks for posting!

I have been looking for this since I last saw it since I was a kid...Thank you so much for posting it. I always knew it was kenny rogers and it must have been at the lowest point in his career which I thought was the reason I couldn't find it

[@WonkaVator72]

Also, I suspect that Eddie Van Halen saw this commercial as a kid and... well, you know the rest.

I can't believe you found this. I remember it from TV back in the early 70s. Groovy Kenny is the best Kenny.

It’s so good to see this again.
