Raspbernie Posted July 28 Author Share Posted July 28 Speaking about "The Midnight Special" — here's something you don't see every day. And yes, I have the original signed copy. 😎 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 Bernie, do you have the check that was issued to them? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raspbernie Posted July 28 Author Share Posted July 28 Kirk— Is that yours? Interesting. $728.00 + 10% agency commission = $800.80 divided by 4 = $200.20. So, whose check is that the stub for? 🧐 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 Not mine, just a picture I saved somewhere along the line. Your math is good Lol! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raspbernie Posted July 28 Author Share Posted July 28 Ahhh. My bets guess then would be Wally. Perhaps Kay shared it on social media at some point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 You got me curious- it was indeed Kay back in 2017 on FB- we both commented on it! LOL! SENIORS...HAHAHAHAHA 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen G Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 All cued up and ready to watch this original Midnight Special with the Raspberries at 8pm EASTERN tonight! Do you think my neighbors are going to lodge a noise ordinance complaint when I crank up the speakers? (We live in a single family home. 😉 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the reasons I signed up here was to possibly hear some Raspberries or Eric performances that could not be found online. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
susie b Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 What a great show with such an eclectic mix of talent, from soul to reggae and country to power pop. Johnny Nash shines, not only as a great vocalist, but also as a magnificent host. And of course the Raspberries were fab. I remember sneaking out of bed and going downstairs to quietly watch the Midnight Special after my folks were asleep. A bygone era... 😊 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen G Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 Totally fun!!!! I vacillated between watching it on my computer (with great speakers) where I could continue to get work done, or going to our large TV with its high def screen. The TV won out - it was like watching it in a movie theater with surround sound! I surely did not remember the huge range of music along with the comedians from seeing the entire episode during my teen years. Johnny Nash did a great job on the MC and performing - golden voice he had! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 Great show! I think my biggest surprise was the talent and power of Chi Coltrane- never saw her live before. Looked like she could be Brittany Spears sister! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 I also thought Chi Coltrane was very good there live. And that Tom T. Hall song was awesome country music from a better time period for that genre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhonda B Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 It was just a great show all around. Something our world is missing today. Chi Coltrane...love her. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackhawkpat Posted August 8 Share Posted August 8 The bridge in “Let’s Pretend” when Eric and Wally sing together is literally one of the greatest live harmonies I’ve ever heard in my life. Spectacular! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
