Hummybird Songs from Our Teens (60* d) RE: Songs from Our Teens 30 Jul 99


Kat: Interesting you should mention Red Rubber Ball. I was in high school. One summer day in '66 (67?), two friends and I went to Central Park, NY. We rented a rowboat at the lake. A group of guys walked up to us and asked if they could borrow it. They happened to be The Cyrkle and they were having some filming being done and a boat sequence seemed like a good idea. So we let them use it. They thanked us and said they'd send us autographed photos (which they never did). However, we got a better reward. On the tv show "Where the Action Is" they did a video of them singing Red Rubber Ball which featured scenes of Central Park. My friends and I were captured on it in the background. So we ended up appearing on tv for about 5 seconds, which was quite a thrill for us at that time. Actually, 5 seconds on tv is a lot more than most get to be on tv! Take care.
