So there's this show that ran from 1973 to 1976 called "The Bobby Goldsboro Show", dedicated to the man who wrote such hits as "Honey", "Summer", and my personal favourite "Watching Scotty Grow" which was featured on the Simpsons twice, in the "Saturdays Of Thunder" episode and "I D'ohbot" episode, I think in one of them it was a Cover Version. there's very rarely anything about the show shown on Youtube. Apart from a few of Bobby Goldsboro's music videos, this was made in the 1970s when Archives of TV Shows(Notoriously including Doctor Who) had thousands of tapes burnt and destroyed because they didn't have room to archive them all.
This is rather sad because one of these episodes was a lovely tribute to the man who is very similar to Goldsboro, who wrote "I Got A Name" and "Time in a Bottle"(As featured in X-Men Days Of Future Past and a remixed version in Hobbs and Shaw), Jim Croce, who tragically died before "Time in a Bottle" was actually released, in a plane crash, came out. Goldsboro is currently still alive, but I don't know how long he has left on this earth. Goldsboro had three children with a wife who they later divorced. He has a website where his Oil Paintings are sold.
I just wonder if the episode still exists in an archive, and if not, whether it would be able to be recreated(Even if the audio also aged badly). Such a shame because it was a lovely tribute to the man who tragically passed away and wrote a lot of good songs in the 60s and 70s.
Here's some evidence of the episode existing.
www.imdb.com/title/tt18233672/ Turns out it was released in 1975 two years and two months after Jim Croce died.
It's a pretty interesting show and one that probably has a lot of missing episodes.
