Tony Orlando appeared on the Channel 6 telethon at some point pretty soon after the release of Ghostbusters, the greatest movie made during our lifetimes (5 stars, highly recommended), and some kid asked him to do the theme song, and it was evident that it wasn't in his repertoire. Regardless, Tony Orlando told the WPSD orchestra to let it rip, and he completely sold out to a Vegasy sendup:
Bustin' makes me feel good!
Feel GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!
FEEEEEEEL GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!
The kid was ecstatic, and I've been a huge, huge Tony Orlando advocate ever since.
Prayers for Leon Spinks; the 58th-annual Telethon of Stars is scheduled for Nov. 8 and 9, and rest in peace, President Eisenhower.
