Jerry Sanders, Carol Burnett, Sally Field, and Jeannie

As of tonight, another couple more hours worth of digitizations from the Tape and Record Show Enterprises archives from the old audio cassettes...

"Jerry Sanders' Hit Parade: Episode 26. Broadcast Wednesday, May 1, 1985 at 7:00pm central. Theme Music: Beep A Freak(The Gap Band) . Songs include: Vacation (The GoGo's), Nag(Joan Jett and the Blackhearts), I'm Freaky(O'Bryan), The Heat Is On(Glenn Frey), The Genius of Love(Tom Tom Club), Midnight Hour(Roger Troutman)."

"The Tape & Record Show: Episode 57. Broadcast Sunday, September 9,1979 at 2:00pm central. Theme Music: Who Put The Line In Gasoline?(Jerry Reed). "Carol Burnett and Company: Guest Sally Field" - Skit highlights: "As the Stomach Turns","The Family at the Cemetery", Tim Conway as the "Rev.Rolly D. Tucker", Autograph Seekers. / "Looney Tunes: A Mutt in a Rut" - A dog watches a cartoon that says "when dogs get old their master's will shoot them." Elmer takes the dog hunting, but the dog believes he is going to be shot so he does everything he can to hurt Elmer first. / "I Dream of Jeannie: My Master, the Spy" - Tony is suspected of being a spy when he is at a NASA meeting and seen in Paris having lunch with Jeannie at the same time."

Jerry started getting behind again for new episodes after episode 26. As a result, the next three episodes, which I'll convert at a later time, were "best of" compilations I assembled from previous shows, to make "technically new" episodes.

I was able to locate MOST of the original cassettes I recorded in the late 1970's for the content in episode 57 of "The Tape and Record Show", except for the "I Dream of Jeannie" episode. I extracted the audio for that part from the season two DVD set, so that segment of the TRS episode will sound "cleaner" than it normally would have. Glad I had the original off-air Certron brand cassette for the "Carol Burnett and Company" episode, otherwise I'd have had to label the entire "Tape and Record Show" episode as technically "lost" and not digitize it, since I don't know of any other alternate source for that VERY short lived Carol Burnett ABC "summer series", because I haven't seen those broadcast anywhere since they were aired in 1979. Even though I included all the content listed on the original handwritten index card for that episode, it still ran a few minutes short of what I was expecting, which was a 90 minute run time.

Haven't gotten Wesley Hyatt's book yet, so don't know if there's any mention of that Carol Burnett series in it or not.
