R.I.P. Richard Dawson: Kissey Game Show Host And Acid Rock Star



While searching for a quality "Hogan's Heroes" clip to pay tribute to the late Richard Dawson(who played Corporal Newkirk on the show) I found this Psychedelic Era Gem that he recorded for Carnation Records in 1967.  "Apples And Oranges" is the b-side to "Children's Parade".  This was done two years into the "Hogan's Heroes" run so he probably thought, "Hey, if Shatner can do it, so can I!"  I would've loved to have seen Richard Dawson tripping balls on LSD.  Who know's, maybe we did at some point?
