Yes, Scott Baio did have an album. The album is pretty cheesy, but it was Chachi singing! He was sprawled across the album cover in what I suppose was supposed to be a sexy pose. . .I was a little kid & sexy didn’t mean much. My heavy metal sister actually still has it in her record collection.

You didn’t have to be a teenager to be diggin’ on Shaun Cassidy. I was 6 the summer of ’77 and I thought he was dreamy. My poor dad took me to see him in concert. Good times.

Rick Springfield’s album was “Comic Book Heroes”. His cartoon was “Mission: Magic”.

As for Rick Springfield, he was a singer. I still have the 8-track(!) of “Mission: Magic”, which was also a Saturday morning cartoon featuring an animated Rick. He got into some trouble (don’t recall what) and went back to Australia for a while. He re-emerged years later as a Dr on General Hospital and then re-instated his singing career. Yes, I am that old.

Cheers!

What about Shelley Fabares on The Donna Reed Show? She sang Johnny Angel on the show and it became a big hit – it was #1 two weeks in row in April of 1962…

But you haven’t really lived until you’ve heard Leonard Nimoy sing “Bilbo Baggins.”

What about the Monkees? They were group of guys pretending to be a band on TV then wound up turning out a string of hits. That’s the equivalent of the guys on “Big Bang Theory” winning a Nobel Prize.

And let us not forget William “Golden Throat” Shatner -no, on second thought, let’s forget that as quicly as possible.

I’m also kind of disappointed that The Groovy Goolies werent included. They had a hit with “Chik-a-Boom”. Of course if we include them we have to include the Banana Splits and The Brady Bunch so where do we draw the line.

No Patrick Swayze?

He had a song “She’s like the wind”
