Star Time #203: Rhythm Changes


It's a funktastic edition of Star Time with some prime elbow movers and tibia shakers from 1968-73. That means a higher-than-usual number of songs with animals in the title (two dogs and a dragon), four songs with "soul" as the first word in the title, a song about Joe Tex but not by Joe Tex, and a nearly 5-minute dance named after the lead character on The Beverly Hillbillies. That last one's kind of the coup de grâce of this episode.
