Classical Gas


Happy 68th to Mason Williams, who performs "Classical Gas" with other musicians (yes, they had to all be "air" playing synched with the recording, partly because the sound quality for those performances wasn't that good back then - looks to be about late '60s, possibly on The Smothers Brothers or another variety show...there were so many of them back then).

GREAT clip: very crisp and clear sound and video.

The Smothers Brothers had a terrific show. Even my "Nixon was too liberal" father watched it with us. Great music on that show.

Thanks - I'm glad you liked it (and my dad didn't like the Smothers Brothers either).
