Absolutely original and authentic!!! I saw this very episode when I was in elementary school. I'd gotten one of those cheesy cassette recorders for Christmas and recorded them and played it over and over... and over... THANK YOU!!!
Michael Choquette (left) and Peter Elbling. Peter went on to do a memorable episode of WKRP In Cincinatti playing Nigel in the Hoodlum Rock Group "Scum Of The Earth" with Michael Des Barres as "Dog".
There was said to be an occasion of them performing some well-known song, accompanying themselves on bicycle pumps. This was supposedly on Johnny Carson's Tonight Show. But I too have been searching for years for anything about them, finding nothing until I thought until recently that I'd hallucinated them. lol
A rainy morning and too much time on my hands lead me to a great video (William Howard Taft) by "The Two Man Gentlemen Band"
After watching TMGB a time or two it got me to wondering about an act I saw at the Cafe-A-Go-Go in NYC a couple of times in 1965 oR '66. And here they are... the Times Square Two. It could just be the passage of time, but I remember them as being much better than the Smothers Brothers clip would indicate.
They used to show up on the Steve Allen Show.

I wonder if their look was inspired by the British duo Flanders and Swann(without the wheelchair). The bearded one sounds like Peter Cook,

I just had to see them this morning, like a bolt from my brain- and I wanted this song in particular. Thanks a bunch. Wack- a-doola. Hickie noola.

The Times Square Two were THE greatest musical comedy duo of that era. Do you have any more of these clips?

I miss the Smothers Brothers Show ... and Laugh In ... and especially Bewitched with the original Darrin.
