Review

Back in 1975 network TV was a very different beast than it is today. Back then, all you needed was a little music, some softshoe and the odd comedy sketch, and audiences would make your show a must-see destination. So it was that Roots star Ben Vereen hosted this four-week summer musical variety series featuring comedy sketches, musical numbers and a whole lotta dancing, baby. Guests featured Lola FalanaLiz TorresAvery SchreiberArte Johnson andLee Lund, all accompanied by rockin’ Jack Elliott and Allyn Ferguson Orchestra. Good lord, I’ve gone deaf and arthritic just thinking about it. Catch Lola Falana’s best bits in 1974’s The Klansman.
