The date stamp on the video is claimed to be 1965....however, it is actually much earlier....more like 1956.

Cool vid though.....

Yes... most certainly 1956 as Buddy is still with WFL/Ludwig here as evidenced by his set of gorgeous WFL's. In 1965 Buddy was still with Rogers. Perhaps a little dyslexia on the YouTube video date?! LOL!

Buddy and Jerry were very good friends actually... ( and I'm sure BR had EVERYTHING to do with getting Jerry that set too! ) ... Jerry Lewis was also Cathy Rich's honorary Godfather/uncle as Buddy put it!

I think this might have been taken from the Colgate hour which would date it in the mid 50s.

That was brilliant!

My wife saw me watching that vid, and made a good point. How is it back then, with three or four channels, and three major networks, you had some interesting stuff to watch in the evenings. Now, with hundreds of channels, it's hard to find anything worth watching many times.
