Joey Travolta (John's brother), sings on the "The Mike Douglas Show"~Ultra Rare Clip!

This rare television recording from "The Mike Douglas Show" was recorded in early 1979 just before John Travolta's older brother began his short lived recording career. Jerry Lewis appeared this particular week as Mike's co-host and can be seen briefly in this clip. Later that summer, he would star in waht would be his first (and last) starring role in the 1979 gang picture "Sunnyside". Travolta was actually a pretty good singer, who's singing career actually should have lasted longer. After 3 Lp's, he gave up on singing, then acting (for the most part), and is now a film teacher for handicapped adults in California. He is a great person who always gives back to the community.

His self titles album, was first. Then "I Can't Forget You" was second, and "Hold On" was his third and final album.

@JeffHendrie Since you know him personally, please tell him I´m a fan (I live in the very south of Brazil) of "DaVinci´s War". His singing is pretty good, too.

I like how I get the flooded inbox after I defended Joey when they said he was lip sinking. Dumb fuckers. I'm the employee of joey's. along with two other jobs Some asshole pulled the wool over eyes. Not like it's necessary. you're all obviously blind in your own right. Fat fucking nerds, need to take your own advice. Haha!
