Tony Orlando and Dawn

I picked up a deeply discounted DVD set of old "Tony Orlando and Dawn" variety show episodes at Best Buy. I had faint memories of the early episodes from my childhood, and so I decided to check it out.

Boy, those people are talented! They had a lot more hits than I realized, and they were darned good all-around performers. Okay, dancing wasn't part of their retinue, but they were excellent vocalists and they were great at hosting a show. They also had real comedic chops, and Tony was great at interacting with the audience.

Yeah, that was quality stuff.
