50th American Presidential Inaugural, The (1985)

This is the celebration of the second term of Ronald W. Reagan. One of my favorite selections from the entire archive. How many productions have Frank Sinatra as the Producer & Director of Entertainment? The expressions of love and appreciation are sincere and heartfelt, this is a joy to watch. More than a party, there are wonderful performances by Pearl Bailey, Mikhail Baryshnikov, The Beach Boys, Ray Charles, Mac Davis, Michael Davis, Larry Gatlin and the Gatlin Brothers, Crystal Gayle, Rich Little, Dean Martin, Lou Rawls, Don Rickles, and Donna Summer. All exceptional, Rickles does eight minutes and kills.

Salute to Our Troops, A (1991) (TV)

Not to be confused with "All-Star Salute to Our Troops" also from 1991, this is a local production of KABC7. Though the production values are noticeably low or no budget (Tony Orlando is wearing a jogging suit) they still were able to get a pretty good draw for a 9AM weekday freebie. Hosted by the long-running stud Steve Edwards and local TV icon and 1976 Miss America, Tawny Little. Who was coincidentally a former wife of John Schneider, just one of the musical performers on this celebratory morning. Along with Ben Vereen dancing his ass off, Susan Anton, Clint Black, Tony Orlando, Sheena Easton, Billy Vera and others make for a nifty version of a morning show. Extremely rare!
