@guitar4jesus
Now, there's a mashup for you: the clown princes of hair mental and the smugger-than-thou avatars of we're-too-smart-for-your-own-good
music.

And I thought this one was a riot . . .

Lest we forget... PARDONED!

Quote

On March 14, 1972, then-California Governor Ronald Reagan pardoned Merle Haggard. The singer, who had numerous run-ins with the law, served 3 years in San Quentin for a burglary for which he received a full pardon.

Merle Haggard Once Said Reagan â€˜Gave Me a Second Chance at Lifeâ€™
Mariana Barillas / April 06, 2016 /

Merle Haggard, the country music icon who died Wednesday, credited President Ronald Reagan for playing a central role in helping him realize his dreams.

â€œHe was a wonderful man in my life. He gave me a second chance at life in the form of the pardon he gave me,â€ Haggard said in a CMT interview after Reaganâ€™s death in 2004.

Percy Faith's 1951 version of this little ditty became the iconic theme for CBS's long-running movie entries The Late Show and The Late, Late Show
. . . and, in New York, local CBS's afternoon movie The Early Show . . . I'm sure the fact that Faith recorded for Columbia Records was almost
entirely coincidental . . . ;)

Percy Faith, "The Syncopated Clock"
