[@clarkkent5632]

Most people don't know Tommy Chong was in one of the first rythm & blues bands in Canada.

[@That70sGuitarist]

Absolutely right, Clark. Before he became famous as a comedian, Tommy Chong played with a band called "Bobby Taylor & The Vancouvers." They eventually signed with Motown, and had a Top 30 hit with "Does Your Mama Know About Me?" Before the band members hooked up with Bobby Taylor, they were known as "The Bachelors," and before that, the "Calgary Shades," a nod to the group's multiracial make-up. (The Shades included half-Chinese Tommy, a Puerto Rican, and two or three blacks.) Tommy Chong caught a lot of flak from the other members because he would sometimes refer to the band as "three 'Ns' and a 'C'."

[@robertbaker3174]

4 years later, that is something else.

[@christophercasey6775]

Tommy Chong is a serious guitarist. That was awesome.
