"Kraft Music Hall" appearance, 11-01-1967complete version incl. interview at the end ("what we're trying to do is create the electrical sounds of the universe!")
It was funny seeing Jack Benny doing his intro and then covering his ears, funny indeed. The Blues Tobacco Road is a far out trip song from the 60's, I remember it well growing up back then, good times they were for a teen.

Coulda done without the weird bass thing, but still a fantastic performance, I think.

Awsome psychedelic slop rock. FIVE stars!

Nice footage, but this version is no more than a poor rerun of the Nashville Teens' 1964 European hit with some Yardbirds raving up added to suggest a "psychedelic lollipop".

Ya gotta love Jack Benny ..always so shitty ..that's why I love the guy ! (The Blues Magoos were great too...cool backline of vintage Sunn amps with JBL silver dome speakers !)

THE JACK BENNY HOUR,or)PROGRAM,as he was Known in times of Radio(When Don Wilson,was his M.C.,) Heh,Heh,Ol'Jack... always 'one arm akimbo,chin resting in his Left Hand! The Filming,as we View it ,seems to Be a Cross (Visually) Between Early PINK FLOYD("A Saucerful of Secrets),The Count5- A Lead/Rhythm Break from'Psychotic Reactions' Break'.I'm Really Suprised That 'Benny didn't Try to 'Drag' His Violin into the Blend...as he was so Famous for Doing!(Kinda an Electric Prunes' "Too Much- Dream").

Ah! Hahaha, then that's good to hear! But I'd figure u really meant it, you know.. with all those people without sense of music nowadays. :)

expoonation, it was a joke. Trust me there is NO CONNECTION between The Blues Magoos and Fall Out Boy and there will NEVER be one, except that both are called rock bands, that's it. The Blues Magoos rule, Fall Out Boy sucks...and...there ya go.
