Linda Carter's Rock and Roll Fantasy

Linda Carter's Rock and Roll Fantasy
from Linda Carter: 'Encore !'
CBS, September 16, 1980
They don't make 'em like this anymore.......

Linda Carter's 'Encore' variety show special aired on CBS TV on September 16, 1980. 

The featured guest stars were Merle Haggard, Tom Jones, John Phillips (of the Mommas and Pappas), and pianist Donald Young.

For one of the show's segments, titled 'Linda Carter's Rock and Roll Fantasy', Linda did a song-and-dance medley of various hit rock songs, one entry of which was the Kiss disco song I Was Made for Loving You.



The video clip of the medley is available here. I Was Made for Loving You starts at the 2:33 mark.

Later on in the clip, Linda dons a blonde wig, uses a banana for a microphone (?!) and performs a Broadway tune.........accompanied by dancers in gorilla costumes ?!

Like I said, they don't make 'em like that anymore............
