@0917gva I found the entire effect very touching - a father singing a bedtime story to his little girl, in a calypso style, with the video presentation worthy of Disney. You know my music taste, Gayle, this is packed full of all the things I like. And I'm usually only listening to the music here. This 'visual' presentation was a monster bonus for me, plus, i remember catching this show once back then (1985). It was all musical skits. For some reason, I can't say enuff about this one! chuck

Quite unusual: I think, perhaps, I am missing something - or not. Thank you. :)

I was telling my friend at work about this video today, pss! Came home & made it my newest featured video at 36,330 views. Thanks again for an astounding post - I just may have to go to Nesmith's website, videoranch, & buy the whole disc! chuck

@Wellch 1:46 "We've got a million dollars worth of ethyl gas." Sounds like a lot of money, but probably way less than real rocket fuel costs! The imagination in creating this video is astounding. Maybe that's why this man won the first Music Video of the Year award in 1981 for Elephant Parts! chuck
