Description
Johnny Otis (1921-2012) was one of the key figures in the development of rhythm & blues and rock'n'roll music. He excelled as a singer, songwriter, musician, arranger, talent scout, disc jockey, producer, author, minister and assemblyman. He hosted a half-hour television program on Los Angeles' KTLA Channel 5 sponsored by Metropolitan Ford. This 1959 videotape, although not ideal in video and audio quality, features Johnny Otis with special guests Lionel Hampton, The Three Tons of Joy featuring Marie Adams, Mel Williams, the Eligibles, Marti Barris and the Johnny Otis Orchestra. Transferred from a VHS tape that I received in 1990.
