I know Steve Harvey did a routine years later about what it was like being a Pip singing "Midnight Train to Georgia" just like in this sketch. I didn't know they actually did it way before him.

I wonder what I was doing when this special aired.

Absolute funniest part was the mic shot during Gladys’ solos.

He was great. He had bubble gum songs way back but was great. Gladys was magic. Very small crowd.
