Another great memory from my Childhood

[thetman102771]

i remember this clip. i saw it once on the local public tv channel back in the late 70's, ah, what memories....

[biggraz1]

i saw this as a kid

[ZombieKingJJ]

Gotta agree Jim Croce did this song better. But still good

[Mater585]

Great video!

[felicityfan001]

We did are warm up for a basketball game to this song :)

OMG, .. I was only 2 years old in 1973, but I used to have a cheap-o Kmart cassette tape with the end of this very clip on it! My half sister, who was 9 at the time, watched this show the night this clip originally aired, and she ran and got her little transistor type tape recorder, but by the time she got it recording, she only got about the last 15 seconds. That tape, as far as I know, is long lost lol ...

[imcrazyforwar]

leroy sounded like someone who needed a good ass whooping and he got it, lol

[mrtubestreak]

Thats my grandfather name lol

[smittykins]

For the longest time, I couldn't find anyone else who remembered this; I was beginning to think I dreamed it. :)

(I have that DVD too.)

[pauljrsdad]

Last time I saw this is when it aired.

[bearz101]

[keltsx]

Been almost 40 years since I've seen this...

[1964nickel]

@keltsx I was just thinkin' the same exact thing. And i was a kid when i last saw it too. Thanks for this @z2yu!

[jimlaregina]

Why does he look like Prince?

[Kitsuneranger]

The irony is the team behind this cartoon and other animation for Sonny & Cher went on to make the film "Shinbone Alley"

[kojjion]

[Silverfox7771]

[ChiSportsNut18]

Leroy got a giant slice of humble pie.

[zeppelin915]

I remeber watching this waaaaaaaay back when .

[productions963]

I think the only one who could be meaner is Donkey Kong.

[lovethemack]

hey it looks different, first time i saw this it was in black and white!

[vonbontee]

Haha awesome, haven't seen this since it first aired! (1973? -74?) I was about six...thanks for posting it!

[dowhatthouwilt911]

I remember when this aired on CBS. I couldn't have been more than 4 years old.

[DeckofReason]

thank you so much for posting this video it brings back memories r.l.s.

[z2yu]

@DeckofReason your welcome, im glad everyone liked it :)

[nolteCOD]

I remember seeing this when I was a kid! Thanks for posting. :)

[stash4thrash]

Just blown away--not only that you posted this, but because so many others remember it vividly, like I do, after not having seen it for 36 years.

It must have something to do with the fact that the only cartoons we had seen up until that point were Bugs Bunny and Mickey Mouse. Then all of a sudden, this animated mack-daddy pimp is strolling across the TV screen in prime time.

Been wanting to see it again ever since 1974. Thanks for posting.

[studio910]

thanks for posting that :)

[z2yu]

@studio910 its a kool vid and a great song lol

[tommyleeswoman14]

I loved watching the Sonny and Cher show. What happened to those carefree days??

[raposofan]

I'm going to faint. I looked this up on a lark because I thought I was imagining remembering having seen this - I think it was 1973 and I remember that exact evening clearly: I was in Atlanta and my parents had just brought me and the siblings home from a family gathering, and of course we tuned in CBS that night at 7:00 pm. I remember seeing THIS EXACT CARTOON and having it burned into my memory. Later as an adult I swore Ralph Bakshi animated it. Not sure now. THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS!!

[z2yu]

i laff everytime i see this vid LOL i ripped this from a Jim Croce dvd its good for a laff lol

[lovealwayskota]

@z2yu really? lol its on the sonny & cher dvd collection too. :)

[LiiTTleMiiszFamousz]

Nice(:

Their version is great & when I saw it the first time on the Sonny and Cher DVD I started laughing.

Thank you <3

[sunbearperk]

Thanks for posting. Saw it when it aired back in '74 or '75. Thought it was the coolest thing. Loved the Sonny and Cher Show!

[blogpoon]

Caught only the end of it back when it was broadcast first run in the "old days", back before VCR's and DVR's. The next day in school, the kids talked about how cool it was, and I missed it all this time. Til now. Thanks to you!

[giocchino1515]

Thank you so much for posting this video! I remember seeing this on the Sonny and Cher show when it first aired in the early/mid 1970s. I ahven't seen it since then, at least 35 years ago, but I always remembered how "groovy" this video was! I was a big Jim Croce fan, even back then, so I always remembered this video. To eb able to go back a visit a distant memory is a priceless experience, THANKS!

[lovethemack]

nice
