The James Coburn Cool - Juicer

As the man in the corduroy suit or the cowboy who could throw a knife quicker than his opponent could shoot, James H Coburn's silver hair stole the silver screen. He blew up trains in A Fist Full Of Dynamite, saved the world, twice, as Derek Flint, and cycled to freedom in The Great Escape. Little is known, however, of his great love of gongs. In The President's Analyst, when Coburn played the gong in the Hippy band Clearlight, he really did play them. He collected gongs and loved to play them to any lucky visitors willing to listen.
Whether or not this oddity is by the late great James Coburn or just another garage group re-working of Louie Louie is not certain. But it is still very cool.

C and James Garner, being friends, played duets in private; Garner on "log".... per appearance by one of the two [I forget which.] on the Tonight Show/Johnny Carson [circa. '70s].... [They worked together in at least three movies.].......... JC, in Meditation Mode, can also be seen playing gong on his Mediterranean balcony in, "DUFFY"....... Vital scenes have been missing from "...ANALYST" since it went to cable/vhs/dvd.
