Hamilton Camp And Bob Gibson, two renowned folksingers, singing together on Art Fein's Poker Party in Los Angeles. Gibson died in the 1990s, Camp in 2006. Gibson started in folk music in 1955 and maintained a successful career. In 1961 the two teamed up for a world-famous recording "Gibson & Camp at The Gate Of Horn," then they returned to their solo careers. Camp's 1964 Elektra album "Paths of Victory" contained several then-unrecorded Dylan songs, and his own composition "Pride Of Man," was popularized by The Quicksilver Messenger Service. Camp also enjoyed a long movie career, starting as a child actor in the 1940s. (Not tall, Camp played Mary Tyler Moore's 'short' date on an episode of her tv show.) The duo resumed performances in the late 70s.

I heard them do this Shel Silverstein tune in Chicago with Tom Paxton as a third voice. Tom jokingly called the group "Peter, Paul and Peter."

Art Fein's Poker Party

Another site says it was recorded on 5/21/87, Wouldn't be surprised if it was one of their last performances together. A tragedy that were barely appreciated outside of Chicago.

Amazing video, and thanks for posting it.
What show is this from, and when did it air? From what they look like, my guess is late 80's or early 90's.
