剧情简介
Before Pink Floyd there was Spike Jones and His City Slickers who used everything from a Smith & Wesson to a kitchen sink to make music. Spike also gained a reputation for parodying the music he loved. His hayseed appearance complemented his humor. He and the City Slickers looked the way they sounded.
His 1954 show for the new medium television showcased his talents and the talents of others such as Billy Barty and Spike's vivacious wife Helen Grayco. Although not listed in the credits, this viewer remembers that Spike's long time vocal associate Doodles Weaver, who was also a fine actor, appeared from time to time on the show.
One feature that made Spike's performances stand out was that he and his City Slickers were all exceptional musicians. Spike was a virtuoso on the drums but also played a mean Smith & Wesson. Today Spike is still one of the most requested songsters on the syndicated Dr. Demento radio program out of Culver City, California. The fun lives on.
