Sing Special - November 1975

This end of season Sing special from 1975 takes place mostly in the Wild West. After some song and dance numbers and comedy, we meet two small-time crooks: Lone Wolf (Ray Woolf) and Crazy D (Laurie Dee). A musical showdown at the saloon ensues — featuring a Tom Jones medley — before a bungled bank robbery brings down the burglars. The performers include Craig Scott, Chic Littlewood, Angela Ayers and George Tumahai (who shows Woolf how to hongi). The show also contains a rare clip from A Going Concern, an early NZ soap of which no known episodes survive.

The rest of the songs that we have for you in this part of the show are about love, in one form or another, and I guess that's to be expected because there's been so many good songs written on the subject ... Love is age-old, it's universal. Love is beautiful. And well let's face it, where would you and I be, without love?
