DICK WILLIAMS "Mr. Magic" [MAGICLAND 1983]
Here an excerpt from a 1983 WMC-TV 5 Memphis broadcast of Dick William's Magicland. This show is certified by the Guiness Book of World Records to be the longest running magic show on TV. Dick Williams, aka "Mr. Magic" and his assistant (his wife, Virginia) did 1200 original Magicland shows over 23 years, from 1966 until 1989, all at WMC-TV 5 in Memphis, Tennessee. [EITHER I'M DRUNK OR THIS GUY'S REALLY GOOD, CUZ I GOT TV-FACE WATCHIN' HIM]
In addition to a bit of magic and clowning around from Dick Williams (an undisputed master of corny joke telling), this clip also includes a 1983 McDonalds "Wild West Happy Meal Guys on a Stagecoach" commercial along with one of the typical commercials by local advertiser, Aaron Sells Furniture.
NOTE: Due to the financial strain of his wife's long illness and subsequent passing, as well as his own recent injuries and ongoing rehab, Mr. Williams has been unable to work to earn sufficient funds to pay his medical expenses (he is 18 years past retirement). Please visit his website to find out how you can buy a Magicland DVD and help Mr. Magic! Just go to http://www.magiclandtv.com (maintained by his family)

Paul Revere and the Raiders: Ooh Poo Pah Doo + Jackie DeShannon: A Lifetime of Loneliness + Manfred Mann: Paul Jones [HULLABALOO 1965] NRBQ
Jackie DeShannon: A Lifetime of Loneliness
[Hal David/Burt Bacharach 1965]
Paul Revere and the Raiders: Ooh Poo Pah Doo 1965
Paul Jones: "Privledge" 1967
Just found out today that Paul Jones fell into the cult of Christianity.
Very disappointed at yet another idol of mine is unable to make their
own life decisions and need a fairytale to guide their lives.
